Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I was hesitant to overindulge and found great food and many options. Service was top notch

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
It's what you make of it. I wanted to do everything so I used the fitness center, ran the jogging track, played mini golf and loved the ropes course. The pool and the cave area were perfect and not too crowded - had a spot to lounge every time.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
IF I could only pick one favorite thing about this cruise it would be the entertainment. I saw every show, many - twice and was super impressed with the top notch performances.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Every person on staff was attentive and responsive. Gerald and the other greeter in Garden Cafe were a highlight for everyone with their entertaining singing to welcome people. Edwin, our room steward was fabulous as were every other team member I interacted with. Hard to come home to real life after being pampered so.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
immaculate - people are always discretely cleaning, wiping rails and doors, etc. Late at night after a restaurant was closed I could see people cleaning the ceiling, the walls - wow!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
I anticipated tight quarters and I was very impressed with our room. Two good size beds and a full sitting area. LOVED THE BALCONY - WAY TO GO!!!! Bathroom was bigger than I expected, a good size. Closet space and shelving was good. Refrigerator was a pleasant surprise.

Ship tip

Lots to do - choose your pace, whether to chill or to explore. Enjoy!

Royal Naval Dockyard, West End, Bermuda

Taxis waiting as well as minibuses. Easy to get around. Walked the dockyard.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
I'd heard I should expect a 2 hour experience. I chose to carry off my luggage and the disembarkation was well organized. Start to finish was like 50 minutes.
