Review summary

Thoroughly enjoyed this Southern Caribbean cruise. All the stops were good except St Croix was lacking. Service everywhere on ship was excellent. Love this smaller more intimate ship. Less bells and whistles than the newer larger ships but really did not miss them. Will sail Lady G again. Extra note, embarkation and disembarkation were very quick.

Food and Dining

MDR could have offered more variety in menu items. Specialty dining, Giovanni’s and Chops were excellent. Service st all food venues was excellent.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Typical offerings for the main part. No rock climbing etc. on this small ship. Solarium pool excellent but not enough seating for size of area.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Headliners were so, so and don’t usually attend production shows. That aside, Mike S. Is a great cruise director.

Ship Quality

Ship is 22 years old and shows her age but very well kept. Love the centrum for extra entertainment.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Older ship, but storage excellent. Large sofa and coffee table gave comfortable seating. Bathroom fine except shower very small and has shower curtain not doors. Very well kept by our room steward, Cornelius.
