Review summary
We drove to Bayonne and had to wait in line to drop our baggage off. Total confusion.
Our stateroom # 2642 was on the 2nd deck at the rear of the ship and there was a constant whining noise followed by a loud boom. I wouldn't recommend anyone staying there. We had my time dining and scheduled each day for 6PM. The waiters were excellent and we could have more food if we wanted it. Small portions satisfied us. After dinner we attended the 7:15PM shows and they were very good. After the shows we had ice tea or coffee and zepolies in Café Prominade which was very nice.
When we got to Labadee, we went to then beach on the left side and it was filled with large rocks. Someone could have been seriously injured there. We went further down and swam at a beach that was filled with seaweed and only a few rocks. Very bad experience, but the barbecue was good.
