Review summary

Overall good experience, just wish the staff would've done a better job at informing us of the onboard payment process. Also, the bar drinks were way overpriced and under-poured when it comes to the liquor. The staff overall and especially the dining staff were amazing, however the bar staff everywhere but the main dining room was incredibly rude. Especially the bars that are inside the ship on Decks 3, 4, and 5.

Fairly easy to navigate once you get the hang of it. Everything was well kept, just watch out for an abundance of children

Cabin / Stateroom

We were told we were getting a larger spacious balcony room, when in reality it was the same small balcony room as the regular ones.

Ship tip

They don't give any info on you payment methods, so be sure to use a credit card, not a debit card because there will be double charges and the second charge is a "hold" that won't be released for about a week

Not the best port. Recommend getting an excursion to West Bay Beach or Little French Key. Most beautiful beaches with amazing snorkeling

Took forever to get to the port since you have to take a 20 minute boat ride from the ship to the port. Be cautious of booking super early excursions, as there's a chance you won't make it in time.

Definitely had the most to walk around and do if you don't have an excursion. However, highly recommend the beach and jeep tours, as you get taken to areas you'd never be able to see on your own, visit an incredible beach with snorkeling and lunch included, followed by a complimentary tequila tour

I have kids and they’ve all cruised, but I can’t wait until one day my husband and I can cruise when school is not out! 😂
