Review summary

This cruise showed great promise as the ship was and is beautiful. The shows were excellent and the desserts to die for. They have a great infinity pool at the back  but you have to get your towels mid-ship and return them mid-ship. The buffet food was good and the choices were excellent, they have the best pizza on a cruise ship hands down. This ship has a lot of passengers and at times it felt as if all of them were where I wanted to be. Very annoying. The shops are small and understaffed. The musicians were great and if you wanted to dance with the exception of the disco you just got up and danced wherever. They are definitely European; you can still get a chance to dance with the officers! We had a good time, but will probably not chose to go back. It was a good trip for the money.

They have really tried hard to improve this area and it shows. There is a boardwalk at the beach and plenty of chairs and umbrellas.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

New shopping area close to the port is a big improvement.
