Review summary

It was the perfect weekend getaway! Always wish my cruise could be 1 day longer but we had a blast. Perfect weather and a lot to do!

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Super simple and easy. Got to port earlier than our check in time due to shuttle and they let us on right away. No waiting no lines so easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The windjammer was great, awesome selection. Chops steakhouse was well worth the extra money. The main dining wasn't great for dinner. Food missed the mark a little and would've been better off at the buffet.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

The cruise director was great but the ships sound system made it difficult to hear him at points. The deck party for sail away was great and the promenade parties were a blast. The silent disco was ridiculously fun as well.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room steward was awesome! Super nice and always helpful. Pool bar staff was plentiful and always there to serve our next drinks.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Casino is small and people seem to hog machines all night which makes it difficult to stay in there long. Ship overall though very easy to navigate.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We stayed in a balcony cabin and it was perfect. Bed was comfy and very clean. Plenty of drawers and hangers

Ship tip

Participate in everything! Try the silent disco, ride the slides, go to the belly flop contest and have fun

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5

The island is beautiful! We did not pay for any excursions or anything and still had a blast! South beach was still closed for renovations so we did not get to hang there. Food was great and island staff was all great!
