Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
The main dining room seating was difficult and disorganized. I did not like the treatment of some of the dining staff. We did like the buffet in wind jammer on deck 15, we ate there more often than the main dining room.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We enjoyed the movie theaters and shows on the ship. We did not have time to enjoy the pools or fitness center.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
I thought that the fee family play grease was not so family friendly. There were a couple of scenes that were included that had parts I felt could have been left out for the younger audience. The ventriloquist was excellent! The aqua show was good.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
My oldest child loved the teen club, there were lots of activities for the teens.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
The room stewards were very nice. Some of the wait staff was not so pleasant, we did have one awesome waiter, had a garden time requesting his service again though.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship layout was fine. The ship was very clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We loved our room, it was perfect!

Ship tip

Get to the dining room early 5:30pm or you wont eat dinner until 8/9pm. The restaurants on the top deck are better choices to eat breakfast and lunch.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

3 out of 5
We did not do an excursion at this port, none that were offered interested us. We were only at this port to embark and disembark.

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
Haiti was absolutely beautiful! We loved the waterpark and the dragon tail coaster. The vendors in Haiti are very pushy to buy items and crafts. They do have some nice souvenir items if you have extra money to spend though. They will all want you to spend with then though. We took the tram back after walking to our destination to avoid being pulled everywhere.

Falmouth, Jamaica

5 out of 5
Shopping in Falmouth is great. We didn't get to do an excursion, we met up with someone in Jamaica and had a private tour. We enjoyed the beach there for the day and travel to Montego Bay.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Cozumel was great, the locals were helpful and nice. Shopping here was good. We did the dolphin excursion at Chaakanab Park. This excursion was awesome, we got a better deal direct through Chaakanab with photo memories that were not offered through the cruise line though.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Disembarkment was easy, staff were very helpful.
