Review summary

At times, it felt like we were not meant to take this cruise. Originally we were going to Key West and Cuba, then changed to Key West/Nassau and finally shortened to 3 days and just Nassau due to the hurricane. It turned out to be quite nice. The ship was only about 1 third full which made for passenger to crew ratio 1-1. We were looking for quiet and relaxing, and we got it, along with great food, just enough entertainment and a beautiful cruise (though too short) to a very nice destination. Appreciate Royal Caribbean looking out for us and doing their best to provide and enjoyable experience.

A little on the small side, but comfortable and clean. I was happy with the cabin.

Ship tip

For a small ship, there are lots of places to explore - from the somewhat hidden places on deck 12 to the wrap around walking area on deck 7. Very easy to get from one end to the other and find your way. My tip is give yourself time explore.
