Review summary

We took 5 of our 6 children. The youngest being 15. Everyone had a great time. Apart from the Ice Show, the other entertainment opportunities were not spectacular. The amenities were nice and staff friendly except one bad interaction. It was not really bad but more annoying.

Embarkation

The Ice show was fantastic.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Only had one bad experience with a bar tender. Kind of a jerk. Everyone else was awesome.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
This ship was very nice. Our last cruise was in 2006 and the ship was about half the size of this one. This one was very nice.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room was surprisingly spacious.

Ship tip

The massage I had was not that great and way over priced. I would only recommend the deluxe drink package if you plan on staying inebriated.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
The port was a bit of a mad house. We did the snorkeling excursion. The kids had a blast, I thought the water might be warmer than it was, so I did not go in.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

4 out of 5
Did not spend much time here. The water was too cold and everything cost too much. Just went back to the ship and sat in the hot tub!

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
A little unorganized. Once we got rolling, it was very easy and quick.

Your experience was just about like ours on Mariner of the Seas in September. I had my partner for life on her very first cruise and it was the four day so she was in love with everything. The hot tub in the adult area and the large freshwater lagoon on Coco Cay was our favorite and hard to pull her out of either. Water was very nice in Sept. Thank you for the review.
