Review summary

Overall a great cruise. Did not go to Great Stirrup Cay because of rough seas. Weather was great once we got South of Florida. Breakaway is a great ship with an outstanding staff.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We did not participate in activities. I do not want to down grade them because of our non participation. I'm not an outgoing person. The Breakaway does offer lots of fun activities.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We to Burn the Floor and Six. Six was best show we had seen on a cruise. Burn the Floor was not far behind. The singer and dancers we great in each show. Be sure and make reservations because of the 4200 passengers on board the theater fills up.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Great staff

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Staff everywhere have sanitizers to spray you hands. Also hand sanitizers located throughout ship. Rooms and resturants very clean

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Balcony cabin was clean, comfortable and had plenty of room. Enjoyed balcony at sunrise

Ship tip

Be sure and make reservations for specialty resturants and show as soon as allowed. Cagney's is very popular and fills up fast. I reccomend the Savory for breakfast.

Ports of call

George Town, Grand Cayman

4 out of 5
Nice port enjoyed the excursion. Went on the tour of the Island booked through Shore Excursioneer. The tour guide was interesting and educational. He told about the history of island and about their banking economy. Went to Turtle farm, Hell, Rum Cake factory and back to port.

Port Canaveral, Florida

4 out of 5
Port Canaveral is best port that I have sailed from. The town caters to cruising. Miami, NY, and Tampa consider cruise lines as just one of th their businesses but Port Canaveral is the main business for Canaveral. Good resturants and hotels that cater to cruise passengers

Falmouth, Jamaica

4 out of 5
The Port was well organized and clean. Did not go beyond the Port boundary because when previous in Jamaica was hounded by people wanting to sell something. Did not do an excursion this time. I prefer Falmount over Ocho Rios.

Cozumel, Mexico

4 out of 5
Interesting port. Took a tour of city through Norwegian. Toured in air condition trolley. Visited old Catholic church, different communities, and downtown area.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

4 out of 5

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Quickest ever. We had priority disembarking. When we stated priority the staff lead us through a hallway straight to off ramp. We were off ship before 8 AM. There wasn't even any customs to go through.
