Review summary

This was not the best cruise I've been on. Enjoyed all the ports. Was with a great bunch of people so we had fun.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
All very Good

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Enjoyed painting class even though teachers didn't seem very experienced.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Million Dollar Quartet was really good. Burn the Floor gave me a headache after an hour, too repetitive, no variety. I saw this on another ship and it was good

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Not only us, we heard others complaining about the staffs apparent disinterest. Actually the people cleaning, moping, cleaning halls, etc. we're more friendly than the stewards. And as a group of 10 we had a hard time getting pictures taken. When 4 of us wanted pictures the guy acted like we were bothering him. And the pictures were awful. Waiters as a rule were good.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Layout was good. Everything was clean

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Cabin was clean, a little cramped with 4 people. But we expected that. Our Stewart never understood that there was 4 of us so he never left enough towels and wash clothes we had to call for more.

Ship tip

Bring cash! You have to use an ATM that charges almost $6.00. I don't mind losing money at the tables or machines but I'll be damned if I'll pay $6.00 to get money to do it. I was on a cruise (different line) 4 months ago and just went to the cashier to get money, no charge. You missed out on a lot of my money this trip, I didn't gamble.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida Did not visit port

Arrived with just enough time to board and left as soon as we landed.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras
