Review summary

Overall, we loved the cruise.  The staff was amazing, the shows were great, and we loved 2 of the 3 islands we went to.  However, the ship was super, super crowded (yes, we went on a school holiday).  They added tons more rooms, but didn't add pools, or deck area.  I think that if you can go on a non-school holiday, it would be a perfect vacation.

We did the Powercat Snorkel excursion. The staff was super knowledgeable and friendly. We saw sea turtles and sting rays. A great trip.
