Service and Staff

5 out of 5
- Room steward was very nice and attentive. Response to requests immediately. - All staffs on board were very helpful.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
- Most of the time, elevators at the central court were always full. Recommend to use either FWD or AFT elevator or simply took the stairs. - Overall, cleanliness was well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
- As we are group of three, room was quite small esp. when all the luggage was arrived. But there was plenty of drawers that you can store your clothes and small items. - Beds were comfort. it comes with two pillows each. - Cabin wall was thin so you can hear conversation from your neighbors. - Cleanliness was well maintained as the cabin staff will clean it everyday if you prefer.

Ship tip

- Everything was provided for you. - You may take a small bottle or mug to fill up the water from the restaurant, so you don't need to order a pack of bottles of water.

Ports of call

Boston, Massachusetts

5 out of 5

Royal Naval Dockyard, West End, Bermuda

5 out of 5
- On the second day, weather was bad therefore all the activities were cancelled. - We booked a shuttle service from the ship to horseshoe bay. The bay was beautiful and there is a shower facility there. - Power snorkel was very fun and enjoyable. Strongly recommended.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
- As a non-US passport holder, you will need to clear immigration again prior to arrive in Boston. The queue was quiet long but the process with the immigration officer took you a few minutes only.
