Review summary

We were rerouted to Miami the first 2 nights without explanation (we know there was a heart attack and probably a death from a fall from a balcony). We spent the first 4 days at sea and didn’t get to go to Grand Cayman. This was a much more “grown up” ship than I had been on before. There were very few silly games at the pool and the karaoke bar was usually empty. The staff and the ship itself were amazing, especially as this was the last cruise before all cruises were cancelled.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very easy and efficient despite the extra Coronavirus precautions.

Service and Staff

Our room steward, Danilo, was awesome. I manage a resort and offered to hire him when he gets tired of the sea life.

We were rerouted to Miami the first 2 nights of our cruise for “medical emergencies” which were never explained to us.

Great cruise, would have liked more of a discount for missing Grand Caymans
Eventful Cruise
Very nice and interesting cruise with little inconveniences. Made unscheduled stop in Miami two times due to medical emergencies.
