Review summary

Awesome cruise, it had been several years since I had been on one, and I forgot how much fun they are on. Cannot wait to go again and would definitely go on Princess.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Wheelhouse Bar

5 out of 5

All the bartenders were friendly and attentive! The 3:00 - 4:00 buy one get one for $1 was great!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We made Marti Gras masks - this was really fun! The sail-away party at the pool deck was great! The fitness center was huge and clean. Bingo is always fun but expensive.

Lotus Spa

5 out of 5

Absolutely loved the spa - my daughter and I both had wonderful facials and we also did the Go Smile teeth whitening.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
All the evening shows were spectacular. The Voice Finals were great - one of the judges Michael Misko was absolutely hilarious!

Service and Staff

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
This room was great and I would definitely try to get a room in the back of the ship again. It was quiet, clean and once we got the ship layout down, very easy to navigate from there.

Ports of call

St. John's, Antigua

3 out of 5
Antigua is beautiful. Thankfully we had a super nice, honest taxi driver Carlos, who took us to Dickinson's Bay and picked us up as scheduled. If you get your hair braided at his beach, keep track of your stuff. My daughters sunglasses were stolen by another hair braider as they sat at the picnic table together. I did get them back, and was told it was "a simple mistake".

Basseterre, St. Kitts

3 out of 5
The dolphin swim excursion was excellent, super organized from the minute we got on the bus, to the swim with the dolphins, to getting back to the ship. Do not take pictures with the monkeys, they treat the monkeys terribly.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

4 out of 5
Magen's Bay is beautiful, the only negative, we were bitten up by those little beach bugs. The shopping is great!

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
LOVE this island, Margaritaville was a lot of fun, the pools and beach were beautiful. Do NOT pay for lounge chairs - they are free!
