Review summary

Definitely one of the best choices for a cruise. It has so many activities, shows, food places and restaurants, everything you could think of! It was a 10/10 experience and I need to book another one.

Embarkation

It was surprisingly fast

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The buffet was kinda basic but Mardi Gras has all you need when it comes to food 😍 I definitely recommend Guy's Burger Joint

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
While on this ship you'll never run out of things to do, its simply amazing

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The musicians were very talented and the performers were fabulous. The DJ's were very chill and overall a good vibe

Children's Programs

3 out of 5
I don't have a kid and I don't really know about this part of the ship so I can't give it 5 stars

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The survice and staff is good, but when I went to the Palm Restuarant my service took a little bit long, overall good service

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very clean ship, very well maintained, It also had a very beautiful layout and design, the French Quarter shows some beautiful design that you need to see, but don't forget about the lido deck, it was beautiful and the design was very smart, I enjoyed watching movies from there.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was comfortable, the couches made me not want to get back up because I was comfortable, It was a very big cabin and very clean. It was expensive but I enjoyed it.

Ship tip

Try to eat at every food spot. The food is amazing. Also the icecream machines are available at all times so make sure you get an icecream. If you are hungry and it's late then you are only able to get Pizza or room service food. You should definitely attend as many performances as you can because they were amazing and the 11:30 adult Punchliner Comedy club show is hilarious. Food is usually served fast so don't worry about waiting long. If you are an adult and you want some time to relax you should go to the serenity. It is adult only and you just chill. If you are 21+ make sure to go to the Fortune Teller bar and grab a drink, they are really cool.

Ports of call

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
Amber Cove was very fun, the shows they had with the animals were very cool at Ocean World. I also got to swim with dolphins and that was very fun, they had dolphin shows, sea lion shows, and a shark show. I got to feed birds but a bird pooped on my head so you have to be careful for that

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
San Juan is very beautiful, I recommend you something nice as at one of the shops. I didn't do an excursion but I was able to spend time with my Grandpa that lives in Puerto Rico and that mattered more than an excursion.

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Grand Turk was beautiful. The ocean was a light shade of blue and I got to go diving as an excursion. I saw stingrays, tropical fish, and they also had whale watching and it was incredible.

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
I didn't do an excursion for port Canaveral but because I didn't I had some time to explore the ship a little bit

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Getting off of the ship was very sad but it wasn't bad. ( I miss Mardi Gras)

Thank you for your review. I had to laugh at your encounter with the bird because it sounds like something that would happen to me. Dirty birds!
