Review summary

We very much enjoyed the cruise. There was only two or three times over the 7 days I felt crowed on the ship. And those times were at end of shows or picture times and they didn't last long. Definitely be back on that ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We ate in the dining room every night. Denver and Roy made sure we enjoyed our meals. Always refilling drinks and had bread and fruit waiting for us every night. Windjammer was crowded but doable most lunch times.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Water slides were fun, never had to wait in a long line. Pools were never crowded that we couldn't settle in.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Grease was amazing! Other shows were great, only ones we didn't care for was the comedy show, they just were not as funny as ones we have seen on Allure and Oasis.

Children's Programs

no kids under age

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff in the dinning room was great, issues were addressed fast if we had any. They always were bringing us food to try. Room Steward kept the room clean but I didn't feel the bond like the waiters, he didn't make an appearance on departure day.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ship was clean and well addressed at all times I do miss the stairwell by Sorentos that goes straight into the casino. Have to walk all the way to the end to get to the 4th floor.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
We found the virtual balcony to not be worth it. Cabin it self was fine, space in front of bed can only get one person at a time which can be difficult at times but managed.

Ship tip

Make sure you review the printed compass, you might miss something if you rely on the app

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
I love this port over any other, so easy to get around

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

4 out of 5
We did the Maho Beach through RC and we found it to be an overpriced bus transportation excursion. Maho Beach is very busy and once you arrive you have to fend for yourself with food and beach and we found we were the last to arrive so no chairs or spaces were available to us. When it came time to return it took us 2 hours to get back and missed any opportunities to shop.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5
Area and shopping were nice. Senor frogs was impossible to get any food, they prefer to just sell the drinks. Took us over an hour and half to get food.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas Did not visit port

Captain had to adjusted itinerary due to rain and winds in the Bahamas. We went to Labadee instead, they have made some good changes since Jan 2019.

Disembarkation
