Review summary

We had fun. You just can’t expect too much from their oldest ship. Do not recommend an itinerary with St. John, Antigua.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
They had connectivity issues and because of the Carnival ship porting too close, they had issues getting the gangway to line up. We checked in and then sat in the terminal for over an hour before we could get on the ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Great Gatsby Dining Room

5 out of 5

Good food every night. Nino and Lalu were great servers.

Izumi

5 out of 5

Good food and service. A ton of food if you choose the prix fixe menu.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Not much for us to do. We did a lot of reading and playing cards.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Seems like they haven’t updated their shows in decades. We only really liked the magician.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All staff were friendly and accommodating. Only complaint is the constant bombardment of telling us about the survey. RC obviously puts way too much emphasis on it because it seemed like staff were afraid to get anything below a 10.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Only complaint is that they use cloth shower curtains, so the bathroom gets absolutely soaked every time you take a shower.

Ship tip

Bring your own entertainment and book an excursion in each port.

Fast and smooth. Off the ship in less than 10 minutes.

Yes I got that same pressure from the RC staff to give them a 10 review score. Every ship requests positive feedback but the RC crew we’re saying things like they would get in big trouble if they didn’t get all 10’s.
