Review summary

Overall I think this is the perfect long weekend trip. I would recommend this ship to anyone.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

It was so easy. I checked in online and I breezed through the port terminal and on to the ship. The only slight confusion was the location of my cabin. I didn't realize until I was on the 2nd floor that I could not walk all the way through the ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The main dining room grilled tiger shrimp lacked flavor. The windjammer was decent. I don't eat beef or pork so there weren't a lot of options especially late night. The drinks were great. The only thing that was a little frustrating was the timing of the lunch hours on the day we ported in Nassau. Everyone returned to the ship and the only place that was open was the cafe.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

This room is a handicap accessible room so it was large and there was room to move around. I realized my last day that I never got any towel animals and that was a little disappointing, but otherwise it was okay.
