Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The Oceanview in our cabin was great. The size of the cabin was very comfortable, and I was happy it had a full length mirror.

Ship tip

The food is good, but you will want to season it to your liking. Also, you will need a lot of drinks to get a buzz, as the drinks were not very strong at all. You are better off getting shots!!:))

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5

Colon, Panama

5 out of 5
This was also A great site to see. And wish I had more time to explore.

Cartagena, Colombia

4 out of 5
This was a great place to visit. Lots to see and do. I did not care so much for the hop on and hop off bus tour as we were left on our own to explore, and really didn’t know where to go and did not feel safe at time on our own at times. We also got lost and could not find another bus because of the regular city buses picked us up, saying that they were the correct bus. We made it back though, so happy for that!!

Oranjestad, Aruba

5 out of 5
The cuckoo party bus tour was great fun!

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
This was really a neat place to see, all the colorful homes And businesses. Mambo Beach was so nice to swim and relax.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
This was OK, but was a little chaotic with the hustle and bustle of everyone leaving at the same time. We also had all of our bags checked, which was not a great experience. Everything worked out fine though.
