Review summary

For our first experience with a cruise type trip this was a very good start. The ship was small so the crowds were small. The crowd was mostly retirees and older crowd so the level of activity was kept to a slower pace. The ship in general was kept very clean and the decor and layout was impressive! This is a good start if you are first time cruisers.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food was excellent! Not all the food was tasty, but they did try hard to have variety. I found it lacking in variety in sea food.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Not a huge variety of options on the entertainment,but keep in mind the people on this cruise is an older crowd. If you want a slow paced environment this is for you. We traveled with our two boys 19 and 21 and they were fine with it.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff was very attentive and helpful! They all took pride in their job and it showed. They are friendly and were extremely attentive to our every need!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It is a smaller size ship and in general the layout, decor, cleanliness and in general the condition of the boat was impressive!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our stateroom was very nice, but since we were first time cruisers we made the mistake of staying in one room, four of us. Staterooms are very small and found them quite small, but this was our mistake. Get a room with a balcony for our next time.

Ports of call

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

3 out of 5
If you like shopping for fine jewelry this is for you. I did not find the island at all worth visiting unless like I said before if you are shopping for fine jewelry, very disappointing!

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
The island was beautiful and beach was outstanding! Shopping I found it to be quite expensive in general.
Don't Miss: The beach

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
We visited the fort "El Morro" and outstanding visit! The scenery was breath taking, do not miss this! We spent most of the time there and walking around the "Old San Juan" It was very beautiful!

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

5 out of 5
The best day ever! You have the island along with the others all to yourself since we were the only boat there. The island's beach is gorgeous and the water is a light blue the sand is like powder, just amazing!
Don't Miss: The beach a simple walk up and down the beach with the family

Pros: Small crowd

Cons: Size of Pools

Recommends Eurodam? Yes!
