I haven't cruised in over 15 years and this was the best!

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Windjammer buffet always had a great selection of items. We ate there for breakfast and for lunch on day of embarkation. We ate in the main dining room at table 907 (level 5) for dinner. Our waiters were outstanding and the food was superb! My favorite was the NY strip steak---so moist and tender. My husband's favorite was the salmon. Creme brûlée is wonderful also! We bought the deluxe drink package and it was well worth it! Excellent bartenders everywhere we went. The best drink I had was an Espresso Martini at the Bolero Bar.
Onboard Activities

Sunning by the pool, relaxing on deck
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Enjoyed the music trivia in the Schooner Bar and the Battle of the Sexes game in the Theater. Also the 80's and 70's music shows by the staff on the Promenade Deck was so much fun! I wish we had known about these ahead of time so that we could have dressed for the particular decade.

No children
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Our waiters at table 907 were fantastic and so personable. We also had a great cabin steward. The only concern I had was that we had no way of knowing that we had to ask to get the daily Compass. We never received one and I learned later that you had to ask your cabin steward for one. There should be a notification in the cabin that you need to ask if you want one. All I found was a QR code on the ship's channel and reading it on my phone was impossible due to it being so small on the phone.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Staff was always busy cleaning. I loved that they made every effort to keep the pool deck as dry as possible. Windows being washed all during the day. Glasses picked up from tables by wait staff quickly. This was the easiest ship for me to learn my way around quickly.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Always cleaned well, beds very comfortable, very small. interior cabin. My husband and I had to take turns moving about in the cabin. We tried to get an upgrade but were unsuccessful.
About 5 ships were in port at the same time. Our group of 6 got off to eat at Sharkeez and I had no desire to roam and explore any further. It was very crowded and the area just seemed very dirty. I will stay on the ship next time or only go to Sharkeez to eat (we wanted cracked conch)
Phenomenal!!!! I wish I had known more about how to get around once we arrived. Two ships were docked and the Oasis Lagoon was very crowded as was South Beach. South Beach is the best! Beautiful beach and the floating bar was fun.
We left our bags outside our cabin the night before as we didn't care to carry them off the ship. We didn't have a need to get off the ship early, so we took our time. We had a 0915 time to leave but things were moving so well that we were able to walk off the ship around 8:30 and our luggage was there and waiting already! Easy-peasy!
