Review summary

We had a great time. Lots to do. I I would highly recommend this cruise & would love to go again. You will not regret it. So much fun for the whole family which for us was my husband, our daughter, our granddaughter & myself.

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Buffet was great. The dining rooms were beautiful but I would have liked a little more variety on the adult menu. Quick & efficient

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pools were good & our granddaughter loved the nemo spray park. Parents are required to go in with their children but I found that most didn't so some children were going down the water slide while the child ahead of them was still @ the bottom or pushing in line on the steps going to the slide. I think the parent requirement shoul be enforced.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Musicians were very good. We went to a magic/illusionist show that that I wouldn't rate as great.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
My granddaughter (4 yr old) did not go to the kid's club but we heard from many parents on the ship that their children loved it so much that they couldn't wait to go there everyday. The entertainment was great for the kids. My granddaughter loved meeting the characters & the parties. She was even able to trick or treating. She had a great time.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service couldn't have been better from any employee on the ship. They really do cater to you.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
All areas were spotless.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was spotless. The mattress & pillows were so comfortable I wanted to take them home. Size of cabin was a little small but there were just two of us but definitely sufficient.

Ship tip

Bring very little cash as all purchases on the ship will be charged to your credit card. No tipping @ restaurants as you will receive envelopes & a set amt for the wait staff & room steward. These will be delivered to your room in time for you to give them to your servers on the last night that you are there.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5
Excursions were too expensive. Went to a beach that was about a 30 minute walk from the ship which was a bit too long in the heat. The beach there was ok &'there was a bar there. We took a taxi back to the ship which was $4 per person &'there was four of us so we paid $16 plus tip for a total,of $20. Well worth it considering the heat.

Castaway Cay (Disney Private Island)

5 out of 5
Very clean. Very relaxing.

Disembarkation
