My wife and I have taken six previous cruises over the years and had never experienced one that came close to this one in total satisfaction! Everything was well planned from the booking experience to the leaving of the ship on the final day.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Every night there was great entertainment and activities. The last night headliner act was a disapointment as it wasn't up to the standard we came to expect.

Ports of call

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

3 out of 5
Take the water taxi as it is the best value if you make more than one trip a shore. The local merchants were too pushy and constantly approach you trying to sell something, even while on the beach!

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

3 out of 5
A relaxing day on the beach

San Juan, Puerto Rico

3 out of 5
Most of Old San Juan can be better seen by walking.
Don't Miss: The old fort

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
We did the beach and the shoping here. This was by far the best of the ports we visited.
Don't Miss: The shoping

Pros: The food, shows, ports of call, room

Cons: Can't think of a thing
