Review summary

I had a very good time was my family. I thought the ports we visited were a very good variety of a town to just beach. The dinning was very good. I do wish there were some better fun things to do on the boat, and late night. However, I know this was not intended for the younger crowd.

Embarkation

2 out of 5
Very long line and was moving very slow.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Very good food in main dinning room if you like fine dinning.

Lido Market

2 out of 5

I couldn't find a option for the New York pizza place to review. But the service was very slow and the pizza would be kind cold by the time I would walk up because they never even pressed my ringer.

Dive-In

5 out of 5

Very good burger and was pretty quick

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The pools are small and no slide. I participated in some trivia and enjoyed them but there was no prize which would have been cool. Also the bingo was a little slow to start.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The comedian was very funny but the vantreicuist was not that great. I personally didn't go to the dancing and singing shows because that doesn't interest me. The dueling pianos and the jazz bands were great. I wish there could have been like a DJ party one night for everybody.

Billboard Onboard

5 out of 5

Very good and enjoyed the snacks.

Children's Programs

I didn't go to the children's programs

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everything was great and very professional. The only thing was the room service was very slow. I only got it once it took and hour and a half to come after I called.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
It was very clean and overall was very good. I wish there was more things to do like a wave pool and slide.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was very clean every time I came in. For how small it was it was well thought one and wasn't that bad for even 3 people.

Ship tip

It is definitely intended for an older audience. You should not expect very lively activity at night.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

3 out of 5
The area is cool. We stayed overnight the night before and went to a nice dinner. The line to get on was very long and took a very long time

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
It was a very pretty place. I went on the caderman boat tour. The scuba diving was very fun and the workers were very helpful.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

3 out of 5
I thought it was fun but there was no like activity to do except walk around. I know the hurricane was the reason the canopy tour was not running.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
This was awsome. It was very cool to get off and the taxi system was pretty fun. It seemed like you could do anything here from the beach to walking around.

Half Moon Cay, Bahamas (Private Island)

4 out of 5
This was such a nice beach, the water was so nice. The clamshells took very long to set up and I wish there was a place with more sand and more space to throw a frisbee or football.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Very good but was even running early which was unexpected.
