Review summary

Overall the cruise was good. Read any fine print. Whatever you want to do be there early. Everyone else has the same idea. Any questions? Go to the service desk. Just be prepared to wait in line.

Embarkation

My experience was good. My wife was delayed due to verification

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Ate at buffet most of the time. O' Shehanns was somewhat bland. The specialty restaurants filled up fast didn't get to participate

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
There was usually something going on all the times. Weather it be arts and crafts ora event at the Atrium

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The show that I saw " Burn the Floor: was excellent. Only problem I could see is thst the shows needed to be more frequent ( daily) for everyone to enjoy.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The ship employees worked very hard and very kind. They need to hire more bartenders. At times you would wait for 15 minutes to order a drink. There were that many at the bar. It would also help to have other bars open in certain areas.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ship is well maintained and clean. At one port they were painting ship on the outside

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The room itself was clean. The toiliet would flush but it took several attemps everytime.

Ship tip

If you have any question ask the service desk. Instructions are sometime not clear or misleadingsk.

1 out of 5
Very limited shopping and it was a mile walk to the stores

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

2 out of 5
The port was very good but since we were on next to last tender. We didn't get to stay but only for a couple hours. Wasn't too happy.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Total chaos choosing what elevator to take to the floor you need to be at. When you have 4000 guests trying to use 8 elevators. It gets hectic.

Appreciate your feedback. That’s one of the reasons I dislike tender ports of call. Sorry. Glad you mostly enjoyed your cruise.
