I'm not a fan of cruising, but this was a nice experience. we traveled with a party of 6, of whom most are not active people. I had to leave them several times to go enjoy the activities. If you're ok with that, it was a nice experience. I like the smaller ship, you see the same people a lot and everyone is quite friendly.

Food and Dining

I have food allergies and there was not much available for me. Can't eat Wheat, onions, milk. Maybe a list of ingredients and possible allergens would be good.
Onboard Activities

I love to dance. The most fun was the Silent Party where everyone danced to different music on headphones. I wish we could have done that again!

This is where the cruise ship really shone. All the staff were friendly, smiling and helpful.
Ship Quality

Very clean- constantly cleaning. and making us wash our hands before we ate and touched the buffet spoons. Still, I used a paper towel to touch anything communal.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Tiny, with tiny shower and no drawers to put anything in. However, we brought some of our own organizing components and made do.
The Gauntlet of tour people shouting for your business is overwhelming. they really need to manage that part of the arrival. We booked an excursion and did a Tour of the Island with a snorkel Trip on a boat. Nice day, once we passed all the pushy, shouting tour guides. It's new for them & I am sure regulations will kick in soon. When we went out of the port again for a drink, another guide came right up and wouldn't go away. He turned out to be very helpful, but still. take No for an answer!!!
I booked a tour on trip advisor which ended up being cancelled. Luckily, there was a tour going to the same place I wanted to go and a very nice tour guide brought me over to them. Kind of a serendipitous booking, had a lovely day. really Enjoyed the cave float and zip lining as well as the bus tour guides. they were very funny and personable.
Glad you enjoyed it. Someone on the same sailing posted a review and didn’t seem to enjoy much of anything. It’s always a good idea to do research and know what you are getting when booking a cruise. This is an older ship, but can still be a great experience.
