Review summary

We enjoy cruising as we have done 26. Miami port not best as its organization was poor. Stage shows need work, water shows terrific.. need more creative ideas for onboard activities… piano music was relaxing and most enjoyable

Food was good…. Servuce always excellent yet selections are unimpressiveTend to oversalt and skump on portions

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Keyboardist in Central Park was outstanding… relaxing and fun Just how many trivia games can you do ?

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Aqua shows are amazing, fun and always entertaining My opinion… Grease was amateurish, leads seemed bored with it and going through the motions Columbus started off well but then got disorganized , stupid and was hard to follow along. To “time leap” from 1490s to now” mafe no sense. Stage shows were poorly directed and performed Ice show was confusing.. poor story line and music Stick to aqua shows

Took tour of St. Thomas Guide was more interested in speeding around the mountain, git us to Mountain top shop where you paid ridiculous for alleged Best banana rum drinks, view of Islands Then she raced down to Magens Bay… allegedly one of the top beaches in world… it was a dump Renting chairs and umbrella from folks who showed no interest to get you set up in a overcrowded beach area once you paid the money Food was 30 minutes waiting, drinks watered diwn… expensive Disappointing

4 out of 5
