Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
This cruise we skipped the MDR and ate our meals at the Lido buffet. This allowed us to do our best to stay on the Atkins diet and the food was always top notch.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We were disappointed that America's Test Kitchen wasn't on the cruise. Movies by the pool were not good for us. Too much distraction from people rightfully enjoying the pool. The lecture about off-shore banking and block chain was interesting.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Magician was ok. Saw through most of the magic. The Piano Man was great. Could have used more of him. Really enjoyed Lincoln Center Stage and Billboard Onboard.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our stewards were perfection and very, very friendly. All the staff in the Lido were very good and always there when needed.

If you encounter something that irritates you, over look it and have patience because it will change.

Ports of call

Oranjestad, Aruba

Walked around town. Rode the free trolley. It's very, very slow but a relaxing way of seeing the main shopping district.

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
We took Irie's West beach hopping tour. Good excursion for the money.

Grand Turk Island

3 out of 5

Kralendijk, Bonaire

5 out of 5
We rented a golf cart from Bonaire Cruisers and followed the southern and northern route around the island. I recommend them. They're professional and the cart was in excellent shape.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

Disembarkation

Off the ship and in our car within an hour.
