We would book another cruise in an inside cabin. Had a nice time
Embarkation

As expected, long lines.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
We did not have the dining package. We both are not picky eaters. We ate mostly at the Magenta/Grand Pacific restaurants. Service and food was good. Ate at Cagney's once, which was ala cart, we both had filets, which were good. The sides were terrible, my husband compared the mac & cheese to Kraft in the box. We ate a couple of times in the buffet. It had plenty of selections so we didn't go hungry. I chose a vegetable panni one afternoon, you would expect that that it would possibly have zucchini, peppers, eggplant etc., but it had coleslaw in it. Really weird and didn't eat it. We went to O'Sheehan's which was meh. Coffee on the cruise was awful just about everywhere. Not sure why a lot of the desserts are gelatin based, some were pretty bad.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We did not participate in any of the game shows, or the activities in the atrium. Didn't utilize the general pool area either. We had the Spa package. We went there every day. Nice jacuzzi, steam room, and sauna, the heated chairs were heaven. I read 2 books while there.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
Attended all the stage shows: Blazing Boots, Get Down Tonight, which were OK. We left early during the Swing show, it wasn't very good. Had 2 acrobat performers who were fantastic and a comedian who was entertaining enough.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Everyone was pleasant and friendly. Our room stewart, Errol was efficient. He did also leave us a towel animal every night.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Ship was clean and well maintained.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
It was our first time in an inside cabin. It had plenty of room for us, and I tend to overpack. Put tea lights in the bathroom at night which was enough illumination. Used heavy duty magnets to hang things on, had an on over the door organizer, I didn't use most of the pockets since there was plenty of drawer space.
Ship tip
Get the spa package, I think we would have been bored without it.
Parking wasn't easy at the Boston port. All the lots were full, not sure where my husband parked since I stayed with the luggage. It didn't help that it was raining and cold.
We stayed in the Dockyard and shopped the first day, nice and clean and safe to wander anywhere. We went on the Clearwater Beach excursion in St. Georges. It wasn't crowded, beach was clean. We walked in the nature preserve near the beach, there were other beaches within walking distance. Included was lunch and a Rum swizzle. The last day, we took the ferry to Hamilton, which is known for the shopping, took the bus back to the ship. The island is beautiful.
