Ship Quality

4 out of 5

For being an older ship needing dry dock, it was always clean and never felt like something was going to fall apart or anything.

Was always clean but wish we had more then one animal towel during our stay.

Ports of call

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

3 out of 5

It was ok. We didn’t do any specific excursion and just snorkeled on our own but would recommend doing a specific snorkeling excursion if you want better fish to see. The locals in the markets they have set up are super pushy.
