Review summary

First cruise after the big C. Much better than I expected. If we could get the mask off of the employees it would be perfect! It made it hard to understand the crew.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food has been fantastic! Dinner in the dining room (Palm) has been exceptional!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We have dinner, go to a show in the theater and then participate in a game show. Then if we are not too tired, we watch a movie under the stars. Great entertainment!

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The majority of the shows were good. We were surprised to see the same broadway productions as we had seen two years ago. Guest entertainment was good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service was excellent! It was as if they had reviewed all the complaints the last few years & really tried to make things right. Everyone was extra friendly. No one trying to sell you anything & no one tried to push anything on you. No photographer trying to take your photo (unless you wanted it). It was a very relaxing cruise! They really did a good job!

Ports of call

Princess Cays (Cruise Line Private Island)

4 out of 5
We were the only ship, but it seemed a little crowded. Food was just okay on the island. Beautiful beach!

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
They announced on the ship that we would have to wear mask in the stores, but no one was wearing mask, not even the shop owners. Went to Coky Beach. It was crowded, but we were able to snorkel & it was good. Just go to the right side of the beach down by the rocks. Lots of fish, because they feed them.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

5 out of 5
Clean port. Just visited the shops. Sales people were a little pushy, but that isn’t unexpected.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We are staying on another week! We do not have to be retested! Yeah! Writing this before we get off & back on.

I wonder what percentage of employees prefer to wear masks. They are interacting with thousands of different people each cruise. In many Asian countries, they have voluntarily worn masks long before Covid. Masks don't have a political stigma in those countries.

Nice review. Yes, the employees would start up conversation but it was somewhat awkward to understand them with the masks. Hopefully things will get better soon.
