Review summary

Loved everything about this cruise. Would go again in a heartbeat. Might even take kids next time! The kids stuff looked like so much fun, I would recommend this highly to anyone looking for a great cruise vacation.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
The hurrucane actually really helped us, because wit just a fraction of the passengers sailing on the shortened itinerary the cruise before, we got on the ship in record time! I want to say it was 11 am! amazing to have a few extra hours on such a great ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
loved it all. Wonderland was so fun, 150 Central Park didnt disappoint, and the Windjammer was usually crowded but still had lots of fresh selections.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We tried the slide ( hold those arms and elbows in, people) and the zipline. The mini golf course was cute. The pools and chairs were crowded and it was sometimes tough to find a spot in the shade, but otherwise it was clean and there were plenty of Lifeguards on duty.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Great musicals! The water shows were amazing, probably my favorite part. The comedian was so-so.

Children's Programs

did not sail with kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Loved Keti in the main dining room. She just made our dining experience so nice, and was so friendly. All of the staff we met were very nice and helpful.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
loved this whole ship. Seriously a neat place to vacation. You could wander all day long and still not be bored.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We had a large interior room, on the 14th floor and way in the back, the very last one on the inside. It was a bit of a hike, but otherwise we liked the size of it and other than being able to hear the water shows, it was very peaceful.

Ship tip

Try the Park Cafe for lunch. The hot sandwiches are my husbands favorite thing! Also give Wonderland a shot. i guarantee you will love it! Otherwise, head to the adults only pool to stay cool. Make sure you get your show tickets online ahead of time.

Sat on the beach for a morning. Pretty! Wear watershoes to protect your feet.

Falmouth, Jamaica

5 out of 5
we did the Good Hope Afternoon Tea. Very fun! Although we did not get to stop at the gift shop or potter's place, so that was a bit disaopointing. Good shopping at the port.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Went to Rio Secreto, underground river excursion. Lasts all day, so dont think you can shop Cozumel! But you do get some time in Playa Del Carmen. Not a lot... travel takes up much of the day.
