The ship was full so there were some lines. A little patience goes a long way and most people were very polite.
If there was line mdr try the other and there wasn't
They opened a portable beer bar on the pool deck and it helped the congestion
Food was good at all places we tried , a couple of the desserts and soups were amazing.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
We had the 11 O'clock boarding slot and showed up to find the boarding area already packed. No one checked our boarding time so I guess it's just a suggestion. Locals cut the line to join groups already in line which pissed a lot of people off.
Once the line began to move it went very quickly and we were on board around noon, but not allowed access to our cabin until 2pm.
Was able to get passes for posh at guest relations. $59 each for the week.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
All the food was good.
Breakfast in the mdr took longer than the pool buffet so we stuck with that
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Water park slides were fun and rock was a challenge for me though some people found them easy
Posh Beach Club
5 out of 5
A great uncrowded bar with real pint glasses and glassware. A bit windy but lots of comfy chairs, beds, and umbrellas (when wind allowed) Noel, Bravia and Wayan were greatWell worth the money if you don't like crowds and dont need a pool
Spice H20
4 out of 5
Crowded bar area most times but Luciano was great. Would have spent more time here but unfortunately is a smoking area
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Noticed not enough staff, but they all worked hard. Always happy and eager to please.
If they walked by ,all busy like,just stop them and ask for a drink or whatever, and they gladly take your order
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Not enough outside area. Pool deck was crowded and because of the wind and lack of sevice nobody used deck 18 or 16 sun decks. Lots of empty chairs almost a secret spot for sun worshipping.
Jogging area was nor good. No breeze except from exhaust vents and no view except lifeboats. Good qtr mile distance but back and forth
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Balcony cabin near the forward elevator. 3 flight of stairs up to pool deck, h20, and buffets
Good size lot's of storage for 2 people. Bathroom lacks privacy but there are lots of public bathrooms.
Last time had club suite and the only real difference was it had a larger shower and toilet area plus the curtain hid the sink from the sleeping area.
We brought a multi outlet and that was handy
We went to Reggea beach for the day. Well serviced area attached to Cockleshell beach. Beautiful beach, some seaweed beds, but a great view of Nevis
Shared cab $15 pp each way and arranged time for group pickup
Could use more time here,too early for Beach day with return to ship at 12:30 and arrival at 7.
Decided to rent a golf cart at Bonairecruizers which we pre-booked on line for $100.
Went north to 1000 steps and then did the south loop and were able to get back with plenty of time to spare.
Very windy day but we had a lot of fun
We have been here before and decided to return to Pidgeon Island for a beach day.
Shared cab was $20 pp each way and the group had to decide what time to arrange pickup. Nice beach but it rained. $20 buckets of Carib, $25 for 2 chairs and umbrella
We booked a snorkel and sail tour thru viator and loved it. We docked at 8 and easily made it to the excursion for 9:30.
Tour ended at noon so we killed a few hours at Palm Beach before going back. Found beer prices high but people were all great
Took a cab to Mambo Beach, $8 each way p.p. $3 Beach charge and $10 for chir and umbrella.
Nice little protected lagoon and small Beach. Great day
$20 buckets
Got dropped off in town on way back and got to ride the floating bridge😜
