Review summary

Just overall a great time on a beautiful ship. Loved the ports but Grand Turk was our favorite. Crew was fantastic and ship was very clean.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Easiest embarkation yet. From security to ship in less than 20 minutes. Fast and efficient.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food is average but not bad. Pizza was awesome and of course guys burgers is a must. The Shaq chicken wasn't my favorite only because it was a little spicy for me but the others in our group loved it. We did not eat in MDR so I cannot speak on that. We did steakhouse and italian and it was ok. Buffet was often crowded but i thought it was good.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Plenty to do on this ship!! You will not be bored. Shows were good and casino was nice. Lots of things for kids and families to do.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I think ship was short handed as wait times got long sometimes but service was great and they work so hard. Our room steward was Asti, and she was fantastic!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Small but clean and laid out well. Lots of places for your things and comfortable. Love the fridge in the room.

Ship tip

The only complaint i have is the elevators get quite crowded so adjust your time accordingly or take stairs. My husband and i went on Panorama last year and that ship has it down where elevators are concerned. Just make sure to plan a few extra minutes if you have any time constraints (shows, dinner reservations, ect).
