Review summary

We had a wonderful cruise. There isn't a ton to do on this ship but with gorgeous weather and a port almost every day, that didn't bother us! Vintages wine bar is great for people watching as well as being able to see and hear what's going on in the Centrum.

Ship tip

You have to know the type of ship you're getting onto to truly enjoy and appreciate your cruise. If you're looking for the ships in the Royal Caribbean commercials this is NOT that. If you're looking for a ship to go on with your kids this is also NOT that. This ship is perfect for a port intensive cruise or traveller's who love the old classic cruise style.

Ports of call

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
We like Labadee better than Coco Cay, but we also don't have children. A very nice, well kept island that still has a natural untouched feel.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
Take an ATV tour of the island. It's not offered by the cruise line but it is the best way to see the island!

We have been on the Jewel a couple times. We are looking forward to a larger ship on our next sailing to see what we prefer.

I love the Jewel, but like you said, it's only for certain cruisers. The amenities that it lacks are what make me choose it for a relaxing vacation.

Appreciate your feedback. Your tip is perfect for those who don’t do their “homework” before sailing. Glad you enjoyed your cruise.
