Review summary

We appreciated the Onboard credits and specialty dinner package. So many emails were received before the cruise trying to sell more things ahead of departure, but we did not find out that St. Kits was replaced by St. Maarten as a port of call until we boarded. This was a disappointment because we chose this trip wanting to visit ports we had not seen before. We had actually planned an excursion on St. Kits, but fortunately did not reserve ahead of time. The St. Maarten excursion was disappointing because of the local vendors who kept us from enjoying the beach. The disembarking process was not as smooth as expected; we felt rushed but then had to wait.to be dismissed.

Same thing happened to us when we cruised on Jewel in Nov 2014. We were excited about going to Tortola BVI, but found out by chance a week before the cruise that they changed that stop to St Thomas.
