Review summary

We booked a Penthouse Suite in the Haven and now we're not sure we can ever go back to anything less.  It was well worth the little extra it cost.  The service was beyond belief.  There was simply no request that the staff in the Haven was unable to fulfill.

 

Our only complaint (and it's not really a complaint) about the ship is its size.  The ship is huge and even after 7 days, we did not see the entire ship.  The shows were fantastic, especially Rock of Ages and Burn the Floor.  And the Brazillian Steakhouse was to die for.

 

We highly recommend this cruise.

Only problem, the ship is huge, maybe a little too big

Cabin / Stateroom

It was a little small for a suite, but very comfortable.

Ship tip

Elevators take a long time and we really could not tell why that was happening. Spring for the extra money for the Haven if you can. It's well worth it.

Ports of call

New York, New York

5 out of 5
Can New York be anything but wonderful? We saw Motown the Musical on Broadway and it was wonderful. We took a shore excursion called Views of New York upon our return that ended up at JFK, and it was fun with a really knowledgeable guide and it sure beat spending hours at the airport waiting for our plane.

Port Canaveral, Florida

3 out of 5
Really interesting but way too long and they really need to either cut the tour by a couple of hours or offer a bus back to he ship midway through the tour.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

5 out of 5
Beautiful with plenty of lounge chairs, the water was warm and clear, great barbeque -- a wonderful day!

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5
Make sure you visit Atlantis.
