We enjoyed the cruise. We may go on another ship if it has good reviews. It served our purpose and probably would do it again under the same circumstances. Food and drink were mediocre at best which is a let down for a Foodie, but we didn't do any of the specialty dining which may have been a better experience.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
For an Italian ship (the pasta was mush!) , you would expect the food to be better than it was. It isn't the worst we had on a cruise, but it was at best mediocre.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Nightlife was just getting started after 11 PM. The ship was fun!
Entertainment
4 out of 5
There was more than one group of entertainers and the activities and experiences kept your attention.
Service and Staff
2 out of 5
Since gratuities are prepaid, the staff doesn't seem to be motivated to provide good service. Our waiter and assistant had one table of six and it was impossible to get water on the table.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The ship was a work of art. It was pristine and clean. Bravo!
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We had a beautiful balcony of good size.
Ship tip
Make the best of your situation and don't focus on the negative!
It's a nice place to visit. We took a land tour to finally see the Bahamas. It was worthwhile. The several stops obviously was geared to see you stuff!
Ocean Cay was a great location and surroundings. One of the better cruise islands that we have visited. However, the bar ran out of ice, couldn't do frozen drinks, and the beer was warm. How do you run out of ice?
We did the express disembarkation where you take your own luggage. There never was an announcement. We saw people moving the cruise terminal so we left to find the place mobbed.
