Review summary

The cruise truly was a trip of a life time. We had beautiful weather for most of the week and the food and drink were great!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Generally good compared to other cruise lines I have been on.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
This was the best food I have had on a cruise ship. I have been on Carnival 3 times and Disney.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Lots of things to do for the kids as well as the adults. The ropes course and the water slides were great. The adult shows were fun. The only thing I would suggest is to have the slides and ropes courses open more during port days. Some of the variety shows should have been moved to the theater as there wasn't enough room for people to comfortably watch in the atrium.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The Brat pack show was very good and entertaining. The Escape the Big-top game could have been explained better. Many in our group didn't know what was going on. There was no good description on the application.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Staff and service was top rate!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was amazing and very clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was perfect size with alot of storage and the bathroom was spacious. It was very clean and organized.

Ship tip

The one complaint that we heard from many people was the on board app for the phone. The texting feature was sporadic. You didn't know if a text went through and you had to log out and log in again to get it to work. The other problem was knowing when your reservations were scheduled. There isn't a place on the app to show these. It caused us to miss a dinner reservation. I would recommend getting the app, but you should know its limitations.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

4 out of 5

Falmouth, Jamaica

5 out of 5
River tubing and beach day was a blast and the Jamaican food was great!

George Town, Grand Cayman

3 out of 5
7 mile beach was amazing and clean, but it was very crowded. People were running Wave-runners in the swim area.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

4 out of 5
The Mayan Waterpark was alot of fun for the kids and the adults had a nice place to relax.

Nassau, Bahamas Did not visit port

ship itinerary was changed to Cozumel due to weather.
