Took our 11 year old twins on their first cruise. It was a wonderful trip all around. The staff on this trip truly made you feel apart of the family.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We absolutely loved our staff at the Great Gatsby, Alfred and Safet made our experience so wonderful. We had one dinner at chops and it was phenomenal. Can’t say anything bad about any of the food options. Oh yeah, the chicken sandwich at Coco cay was to die for.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
From bingo, to karaoke, live entertainment, there was never a dull moment. So much stuff going on, there was never a moment of down time unless that’s what you wanted them you can get cozy in a nice chair and enjoy a book. Or a movie on the pool deck, actually watched three newer released movies.

Guest service Were so helpful. Next cruise staff was so helpful. Ivan our state room attendant was so very helpful in making our ship room and home for the week.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
For the most part, very clean and has a few spots that could use attention but nothing takes away from the functionality of the ship.

Ship tip
Know that this ship is smaller, and my time dining is going to be your best option, because timing is everything.
This was the best port for our family. We had such An amazing time. We got a cabana in the thrill park, which included up to six tickets To the water park... was a bit expensive but book early for the best price. We paid 599.00 and the week before our trip they were selling for 1199.00 but that price offered us a cabana attendant (Sheryl) she was amazing we wanted for nothing the whole day. She even brought us things we didn’t ask for but appreciated anyway.
Beautiful city, lots of history. And you have to check out river street sweets !!!! Best pralines around. We also did an hour long carriage tour of the city. Well worth it.
Steph, I wish you would have come and said hi. I sail by myself and always enjoy meeting the wonderful people on the cruise. Best wishes from Table 213.
GOS is easily my favorite ship. I have sailed her many times over the past 20+ years. Yes she is old and small but we'll maintained and the staff is always impeccable. Will surely be missed when she leaves. Oh Riverview Sweets does have amazing Pralines and anything else sweet you could desire.
I am so happy that you and your family had a wonderful vacation cruise. I was on that cruise as well and I agree with your comments. Love the Grandeur.
