Beautiful ship with multiple venues and activities and yet quite areas could also be easily found. If you didn't have a great time it was your own fault.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Other than an hour delay in getting on the ship due to passengers still onboard the embarkation was smooth and my lugaggae was at my cabin door before me.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Great food in the main dining rooms, multiple buffet choices which changed daily, did not use specialty restaurants
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
The 3 heated pools onboard offered different experiences--quite adult pool with no shade, main pool with lots of fun games, some shade and 3 jacuzzis, indoor pool-for cold days with 2 very big hot jacuzzis. Always was able to find a spot in and around the pool/jacuzzi.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Every night there was a main feature show. The 2 Broadway stage shows were great, the 3 excellent solo singers, 2 funny comedians and 2 magicians were all amazing. Every night there was a theme party, karaoke, and multiple other venues for entertainment and dancing.
Children's Programs
no kids

The staff on board made everyone feel welcomed and encouraged participation in the events. They were all very friendly and professional helping any way they could to make it a memorable experience.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Beautiful luxurious ultra modern ship with lots of sparkle. Loved the promenade area with it's ever changing magical ceiling. Meticulously maintained and always saw staff cleaning and polishing.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Booked an inside guarantee and was upgraded to a deluxe balcony. Balcony cabin was very clean and well appointed. Bathroom was small but sufficient.
Ship tip
Bring a sweater/wrap for the evenings and enjoy as many of the events asl possible. It was nice that the ship docked at piers on each island and did not have to
took the water taxi for $7 rt from pier to downtown Philipsburg. Beautiful beach with chairs & umbrellas for rent right next to the pier in Philipsburg-wish I had a swimsuit on.
Thanks for your detailed review. Good to hear you got upgraded. It's always a good chance to get upgraded if you book a "Guarantee Cabin" unless it's a single solo cabin which they don't upgrade. But Guarantee Cabin is the way to go if you don't mind where you'll be ultimately upgraded to.
