This was a fantastic ship, great ports, and we loved everything about it! The negatives were not under the control of the ship. We would do this again in a heartbeat!

Easy embarcation.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We have been on a lot of ships and this was by far the best food we have ever had on a cruise. We ate in the Tides Dining room as well as Chops and Giovanni's TWICE (!) and we did the Chef's Table for the first time. All were amazing experiences! And the buffets were great too. Loved the outside area for dining at the Windjammer.

Ship tip
Try the specialty restaurants and get up early to watch the sunrises!
Getting in to Miami was fine but getting out was a mess since they were having a marathon that day. Check to see if there are any activities going on that could mess up departures.
We did an off the ship scuba diving excursion. The ship stayed on ship time instead of local time so our excursion left us for the morning dives but we got to do an afternoon dive.
There were only 2 Border and Customs agents for the ship due to the government shutdown so disembarkation was delayed for everyone. Also, the Miami Marathon made traffic around the pier a mess.
