Looking into other cruise deal; I'm ready to sail again.
My only meltdown moment was the preparation in getting my Covid-19 Rapid Test completed; within the 48 hour. That 48 hour window with scheduling an appointment with CVS, Walgreens and Urgent Care needs to change back to the 72 hours. Also make sure once the Covid-19 rapid test is completed, have the facilities email your results.
Some results take a bit longer to receive.
I say this with Holidays in the mix of the dates of sailing; I discovered that a lot of testing places for rapid test aren't doing testing, if you have a trip schedule during the Holidays.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
The embarkation was surprising smooth in regarding showing all the documents ie: passport, Covid-19 Test Results. I have to say the embarkation were on points checking in the passengers.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The first dining servicing in the Black Crab didn't win me over; however in my return to the Black Crab Dining Room got better.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Other then watching the animated movie "SOUL" it was a good feeling watching a movie under the stars. I just wish they had more movies to watch.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The live band did an excellent job for as entertaining. The Lighthouse show was great experiencing that on the beach from a overnight stay.
Children's Programs
3 out of 5
I didn't sail with children, but the one time I witness the children lined up walking around the ship singing, with a roll call shoutout.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The Terminal Crew did a great job with expediting the check in.
The waiters in the Black Crab - Jason Bolland (Head Waiter), Komang Desiani (Bar Services), Tatenda Ben (Asst. Waiter), Johnrell Quimada, A6ung Cokorda, Edwing Coto (Head Waiter), Max Obakeng, Jordan Weeks & Abgail (Poisedon Bar), Dexter Simon & Natanya Constantine(Garden Bar), Rodrigo Oliveira & Terrence Hackshaw (Shop Attendant), Aldo Garcia Ortega (1st Photographer)
You all were outstanding from my dining experience at the Black Crab Dining Room, at the all you can eat buffet; my zen moment at the Garden Pool area, and shoutout to the bartenders in making sure my drink glass was never empty. YOU ALL ROCK! "Hand Clap"
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
I can honestly say the crew stayed on the public area restrooms by the pool, by the dining rooms and the gym was in great shape as well.
Cabin / Stateroom

The gentlemen that made sure my room was in tip top shape Waynewright Estwick (Boutique Associate) He did an OUTSTANDING job!
Ship tip
Go and enjoy yourself, I had my doubts because of my limitations I was placing on myself; but that went away once the ship stared sailing.
The disembarkation was just as good as the embarkation; the staff direct you to where you needed to go to retrieve your bags and direction if you needed the shuttle service to ride to the airport.
