Cabin / Stateroom

The cabin was nice - a little small for two people. The bed was a little hard but we slept ok. Really enjoyed the towel animals daily.

Ship tip

If possible book a larger cabin. But overall the cruise was magnificent!

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

Fort Lauderdale is a nice town.

Grand Turk Island

3 out of 5
We booked an excursion, but was unable to get on the bus because they overbooked was a little upset since I had a broken foot and it took me a while to get down to the area we were departing from. They did give us our money back which we appreciated but probably wouldn’t book again.

San Juan, Puerto Rico

5 out of 5
Loved the port - beautiful! We took an excursion that took us all around and so enjoyed. Was able to go through the town a bit and enjoyed the nightlife a little.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
Oh my goodness breathtaking- so enjoyed both St. John & St. Thomas took an excursion around the island and was able to see all different little inlets that were amazing.
