So, many food choices! Unbelievable!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
There were four pools that we could access...Lido, Tides, Serenity, and one at Summer Landing...and were great. Two were infinity. Not sure if there was a pool in Havana area.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The shows in Center Stage were amazing! Some with aerial performances. And the game shows were top notch.

Service and Staff

Superb staff, as usual.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Brand new ship, in perfect condition. Food venues spread out over several decks. Many complimentary food choices.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Very small inside cabin, but very well appointed, nice decor, and very comfortable.

Ship tip

The public bathroom doors are all motion detection. Many people hated them, but if you going in knowing how they work, there is less frustration. You wave your hand over a button on wall (not touching it). The door will open. It takes awhile for it to close, and that’s what upset people, but it’s to give handicap time to enter. You wave again to open door to leave.

Beautiful pool and shopping area.

Grand Turk Island

We took a tour of island on a tram. We saw the wild donkeys and horses that roam freely on the island.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We actually did a B2B and stayed on for the February 5 itinerary to Western Caribbean. Very easy with facial recognition.
