Overall a great first time experience! Will do again!
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Didn’t take too long once in the terminal, line was long outside but it moved pretty consistently.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We are fancy eaters, ate most of the time in the windjammer first breakfast and lunch, the bacon is out of this world! How do they make it so good? Ate Jonny Rockets for lunch, good as expected. The MDR was fine, nothing to write a song about but wasn’t terrible and if you didn’t like something they would get you another dish. Service was very good, especially considering the number of guests.
Olive or Twist
5 out of 5
Our favorite place to hang out! Peaceful during the day and happening in the evening. Came here almost every night after dinner and/or entertainment.
Chop's Grille
4 out of 5
The service was great but the food wasn’t as good as you would expect. No ribeye on this go around which was disappointing.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Plenty to do if you want and plenty to do if you don’t, lol! We mostly just chilled and hung out.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The service was very good. Sure there were a few less smiley or really happy to be there but we all have those days and their jobs are TOUGH. Didn’t have any issue even with those rare occasions because you catch more flies with honey than you do vinegar. Most love being asked questions so they can share who they are, those that don’t won’t and that’s okay.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
For as many as come and go that also make a mess, the cleanliness was good. Pool deck bathrooms would get a little rough at times but that’s to be expected.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
This was a balcony which I recommend. This room was just above the rescue boats so there was a constant dinging through the night. Loved being able to retreat and hang out in peace and quiet with a great view! Be careful not to leave the door cracked open or the AC will stop working, lol! We learned that lesson one night, the hard way.
Bed was comfy and we slept well, steward didn’t a good job keeping things in good shape and was very attentive.
Ship tip
Take advantage of the view in the Olive and Twist!
It’s a port town, no excursions but walked around looking at shops, etc. They all pretty much sell the same thing but no one was pushy that I remember.
Beautiful beaches and nice that the drink package works here but drink choices are limited. I wasn’t a fan of the somewhat aggressive vendors (using the tactic to try to get you talking, etc.) I wasn’t interested in buying anything and wasn’t even looking.
The beach BBQ was okay, it was windy and the food got cold quick. No excursions, just walked around and sat in free chairs but got back on the boat due to wind.
