Review summary

Our group of four really enjoyed the ship and the ports. Would absolutely cruise the ship again!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Wow! Great talent! Center Stage shows shouldn’t be missed! Comedy was excellent, and the musical talent was incredible.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Like all other experiences we were warmly greeted and welcomed everyday. The cashier in the morning at Java Blue was an absolute delight. If you had a bad day after her warm greeting it was on you!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Everything was in great condition. Took a bit to figure out the ship, but once we did we loved it.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was great and our Steward Minn was wonderful. We discovered that we liked the venues both indoor and outdoor on deck 8, so this was a perfect location.

Ship tip

Explore! Don’t just go to the familiar ship spots. There is so much on this ship.

Ports of call

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Absolutely loved this! Rented a golf cart and explored. WHEN we return we will bring soft side coolers and stop on Old Town to pick up beverages and find a little beach to hang out. Jack’s Jerk Chicken is a must try!

Port Canaveral, Florida

5 out of 5
We enjoyed this port and spending an extra day in the area.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

4 out of 5
It was a nice stop. We did a resort pass which was nice but not what we would do again.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
Wow what a beautiful city! We just walked the old town and took in the sites. Found the people San Juan very friendly and welcoming.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Very well done. It was great to watch Kendal Fyre the CD interact with people. If you get the chance to cruise with her do it!
