Embarkation

5 out of 5
Easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
Food is pretty bad. Overcooked and just not flavorful. Drinks expensive ($45 for a glass of Veuve), $20 for a shot of Patron etc.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Horrendous, crowded etc

Entertainment

1 out of 5
David Conley CAN NOT SING. Who is booking the entertainment? They need to be fired. Horrible.

Children's Programs

1 out of 5
They made me fill this in but I assume it sucked like the rest of the cruise did.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Staff was below what we experienced on other cruises but still good. Aside from the Brazilian gentlemen at the cruise Next desk who was the worst person I have ever dealt with on a cruise and the waiter who kept screwing up our orders everyone was nice

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
It smells like sewage. I am not kidding. Stay away.

Cabin / Stateroom

It was nice. Pillows uncomfortable.

Ship tip

Stay away. It smells like sewage, is filled with 3,000 Bostonians screaming TOMMMMMMY. BOSTON STRONG etc. Do NOT book

Ports of call

1 out of 5

Royal Naval Dockyard, West End, Bermuda

anybody else notice that the bad reviews seem to be more from people who stay on the 11th floor? I don't know what's going on up there.

WOW This has to be the rudest comment I have read How does your other half feel about trip For being on vacation you could not find anything good? I can not begin to react to your comments We as a couple and at times as a family have traveled to Bermuda 23 times to be exact and had incredibly great times I just hope when we do it again you aren’t one of our passengers!!!
