Review summary

  I submit that the Jewel, as all 'Radiance Class" ships, is the best designed out there. Just the right size and kept clean and beautiful  Capt and crew top notch.  The cruise was sold out yet we never felt crowded.   The singers, dancers, and band were best I've ever seen on a cruise ship. Comedians so-so. Food was consistently very good.  Best on shore trip was purchased from cruise.com, the Aruba snorkle.  Except for the shows, the on board activitties were a little weak.  Overall the cruise was best ever.
