We enjoyed ourselves but having 6 days at sea (1 cancel, 1 was the lock day and only got 1 hour to get off boat), I will pick cruises with more port days. Our last cruise was only 1 day at sea and would have liked at least 2. So somewhere in the middle of that for a 10-11 day cruise. Loved the ship, loved the crew. We had a great time.

Everything went smoothly
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
We ate at the Buffets for all breakfasts. Eggs were cold and bacon was blubbery. Other than that, the Oatmeal and hot cereals were good. Great selection. If you like fried eggs, they made me one at the omelet station and it was good. We went to Cagney's and mine was fabulous - prime rib - my husbands filet was very over cooked. We love the hamburgers and Rubens at the O'Sheans restaurant and most food and apps at the main dining rooms were quite good.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
We joined the spa package since we had 4 days at sea (ended up with 6 days at sea) so we are happy we had the spa package. Pool was very crowded but plenty of chairs around the boat for sunbathing.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
We went to a show all but 1 night. All were very good. Comedian was fabulous. We also went to the nightclub where Upgrade (the band) was almost every night. Very good! Lots of fun!

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The bed and pillows were comfortable. The size was good as we only hang out for sleeping and getting ready. However, this is the smallest room we had so far - would at least like a small couch. But there was no room for it. The space for clothes and such were good. Would like to see electric outlets by the head of the bed.
We stayed on the ship to go through the Locks. Great way to see. However, next time, I think I would do the train excursion. Heard lots of good reviews from other passengers.
We only had enough time to go off the boat, walk through the mall, take a picture and go back to boat. It was a total waste of our time to even get off the boat.
This was a beautiful island. Would have been better if they wouldn't charge so much to have a drink or food. Our first 2 drinks came to $33 with the tip and tax. So we choose to go back to the boat early to eat lunch there. Not sure why they have to charge so much per drink or food and have such a high tax there.
Appreciate your feedback. Agree that a nice mix of sea days and ports of call is best, but weather related cancellations are to be expected periodically. Glad you enjoyed your cruise.
