Review summary

We were very satisfied with this cruise experience -- the ship, the staff, the food, the excursions. There is always something to do. We enjoyed the Level 15 windows at the front of the ship. So relaxing. And we enjoyed the Garden Restaurant seating at the front of the ship. Great views.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

The restaurants were wonderful. The food was excellent. I loved the open dining plan and eating when and where we chose.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We sat on deck chairs and watched people, which we enjoy doing. I took a painting class, which was very enjoyable. We ate a LOT.

Entertainment

We went to two shows and they were enjoyable.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Overall, very pleased. I have to eat gluten free and it took several days before I was able to get the system to work for me. But once I figured out how the ship staff handle special diets, everything worked smoothly. The food was excellent and by the last day I didn't have to wait extra long at the table to get it.p

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very nice. What I noticed was the sleeping rooms are so quiet. You don't hear the guests next to you at all. There appeared to be a shortage of swimming pools. There is only one adult pool and one kids pool. And there're crowded during the daytime. The many restaurants was very nice and the open eating plan.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We were very comfortable. The cabin was clean and well taken care of. No complaints. We had a fantastic experience.

Ship tip

Be prepared for a fun week. The staff enjoy their jobs and it is reflected in their friendliness. We loved our week cruising.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
We just boarded the ship. We did not do an excursion.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5
Our group of four rated this port and excursion the best. We did the beach and shopping excursion. The beach was so nice and it was great to get into the water. The shopping was okay. We were tired and ready to get back to the ship before our bus was so caught another cab to the ship.

Tortola, British Virgin Islands

5 out of 5
This, too, is a beautiful island. We did the beach excursion. It was very crowded but we still had a great time in the water and relaxing on the beach.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Another beautiful island. We did the Discover Atlantis and Beach excursion. Atlantis is very enjoyable, the aquariums and pools we saw. There is a lot of walking. The waves on the beach were so strong it was scary to get in the water. But there were other pools to be enjoyed.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Uneventful. Disembarking was very organized and went smoothly. Staff were very helpful to get us connected with our ride to the garage where our car was.
