Everybody was cordial and helpful

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Older ship and as you would expect needs some minor updating. Our balcony glass was etched by a corrosive chemical which made the view thru the glass balcony below what what we would expect. WIFI was actually okay however our room was right by a router so that helped.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Room and Steward were fine, excellent storage but the balcony glass was etched and reduced the view which is the reason you get a balcony. Overall for the price it was okay though.

Ship tip

Have fun and enjoy - remember everything may not be perfect but it is better than being in the office or at home.

Falmouth, Jamaica

Did the Dunn's River Falls which everyone has to do once and the beach combo with good food and beautiful beach however the time at the beach was not enough.

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5

Basic burger and hot dogs but the favorite owned island - did the roller coaster day pass which was fun and the Columbus Cove beach was amazing. The marketplace was a bit intimidating but just ignore the vendors who are a bit agressive.
