Review summary

Hit some bad weather coming out of NY, ship and crew handled it very well. The ports were lovely and enjoyed to the fullest. I think I prefer an itinerary where the sea and port days are not as grouped together. Meaning couple sea followed by a port or two. This cruise was 3 sea days, 4 port days, 2 sea days and we needed a break from ports by the time we returned.

Ship tip

Avoid the Spa, otherwise it is a totally good take.

It is much better cruising out of Miami.
