Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The food in the main dining room was constantly good . Also enjoyed Shaq’s , guys burgers , the bbq place , the pizza , and ice cream

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Plenty to do at all time . Pools , hot tubs , mini golf , the arcade , bingo , trivia , and the roller coaster .

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The piano bar was a lot of fun . Also , the backyard band was amazing . We also saw five different comedians and they were all great .

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
The service was real slow the first two days in the main dining room . Then it was great the rest of the time . Also , the bbq place is extremely slow . They seem to need more staff . Our room steward and just about every worker we encountered were wonder , gracious people . The only exception is the guy running the sports court . My one encounter with him , he was a jerk .

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ship is still like new and easy to navigate for as large as it is

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Cabin was fine , the balcony was huge . The bathroom is tiny .

Ship tip

I would stay in the aft close to floors 6-8. Easy access to the dining room , bbq place and 8th floor pools and hot tubs . Plus the back elevators take you right to the 16th floor buffet , shaq’s chicken , the tides pool.

Ports of call

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata), Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
You can stay at the port and do the pool that has a zip line , water slides , and swim up bar . Or their is a whole city and mountains near by with all kinds of activities available

Grand Turk Island

5 out of 5
Cute little Island with a beautiful beach . Easy to get around .

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We had breakfast and then walked off the ship and was in the car , out of the parking garage within 30 minutes
