Review summary
Ship is very pretty and cabin was very comfortable. Wait staff was sometimes rude and seemed exhausted and tired at the Garden Cafe and O'Shannigans.. Cabin Steward was very helpful and did an excellent job. Buffet food was not hot, just warm but the food at the Tropicana was awesome and so was the staff at The Taste.. Very crowded ship and lots of loud music and parties. Not enough seating at planned activities. Beverage packet is charged to everyone that is under your reservation so if you drink but your partner does not they get charged anyway. That is something that needs to be changed. You had to pay extra for some of the shows, and the bowling is $5 a game. Ship is not docked long enough in St. Thomas. I will try another cruise line next time. Since this was my first cruise, I have nothing to compare it with so these are just my thoughts.
Had a good time, just not a great time.

Ship tip
There is an adult area in Aft of the ship that is very hard to find. It has two hot tubs and a misting pool. There is also bar with the outdoor movie screen. ( they do not show movies all the time, most of the time it is just pictures of places around the world) but you can get away from the crowd
