Review summary

The ship and Itinerary were great. They could have dropped Falmouth and it would not have hurt my feelings. I would have preferred another day at sea.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We always get the "Ultimate Dining Package" and it never dissappoints. Make sure you use your daily food credit for the A la carte venues.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Serenity pool is a must for quiet relaxation. The main pool was full of kids, which was unexpected for October.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The piano man in the elevator is great if you can catch them. Ice skating show as well as the headliner entertainment were all top notch.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The crew aboard were top notch, especially post Covid. We have not had this level of consistent service in quite some time.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
What a great ship. Although not the newest in the fleet, she is well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The cabin size was a little small for "spacious ocean view balcony". Much of the extra space was behind a curtain so we did not really feel any extra space was available. We just stuck our luggage behind the curtiain.

Ship tip

Enjoy all the ship has to offer.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida Did not visit port

it was where we boarded

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
Great beach day. depending on the beach, there is lots of shade if you need it.

Falmouth, Jamaica

3 out of 5
Don't waste your time getting off the boat if you don't have something planned. There is nothing special about this port. The excursions take you far away to other parts of the island. If you take an excursion, plan on making a day of it.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
It never disappoints. We like the Oasis pool.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy, just like embarkation.
