Review summary
The trip was very relaxing. However, my family and I wish there was more for the families to do together. There were couple things and teen things to do but nothing really for the entire family to do together. Also, we thought that the drink packages were expensive. We understand the alcohol can be expensive but non alcoholic drinks should be included in the cruise. For a family of four to drink it almost costs $1000. That's a bit extreme after all the money spent to go on the cruise ship.
Other than that, the ship was beautiful, the staff was friendly and the islands where incredible. We would definitely cruise again but maybe on another cruise line.
