Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The buffet food was really good, although I did notice it was repetitive. The pizza was great. We did not do any of the specialty restaurants. We ate at the Seashore dining room one night and didn’t really care for it. I don’t have any big complaints though, I’m easy to please and was just glad to have a fully belly.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The pools and slides were great, my family and I really enjoyed them. We also enjoyed playing the Ping Pong table and other activities for families.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We only made it to two of the shows and they both were great.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
My kids absolutely loves the kids club. Both my boys said it was the best kids club they have been to and his was our 7th cruise. My daughter also enjoyed the teens club.

All around very friendly and helpful.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship is stunning, the layout is amazing you never knew there was 5,000 people on board. It was very well kept, and always seen the staff working hard to keep things tidy.

Ship tip

Do not listen to all the negative reviews and have an open mind.

Ports of call

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
Beautiful area but I think it would have been better if we would have taken a tour. I wish the time there was longer.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
Beautiful island, we went to Coki Beach and used our snorkel mask and saw so many beautiful fish.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

5 out of 5
We went to KonTiki Beach which was also beautiful and relaxing. We rented chairs and relaxed. There are ladies walking by that give massage and I got a foot massage which was nice. The only downside to this beach is that one end is a nude beach and people from that end walk to the other side with just a thong on and well isn’t good when you have children.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
We did the Blue Lagoon excursion, this is our favorite in the Bahamas. It is great for families. The water is beautiful, the activities are fun and food is good.
