Loved the main dining room for both breakfast and dinner. There is no place better than O’Sheens for lunch and late night snacks.

The band at Syd Norman’s Pour House we’re amazing. Ally, Steven, Emma and guys in the band were so friendly and their sound was amazing!! Only missed one night and that was because we had a specialty dinner that night. Burn the Floor was awesome.

Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras

Was scheduled to do an excursion at this port but it was rained out. They are working on the port and looks like they will be adding to it.

George Town, Grand Cayman

4 out of 5
Did not do an excursion and ship was forced to tender at Scotts Bay because of weather. As it is smaller tender port it took a while to get everyone off of the ship. Had to take a taxi into George Town but we got to eat Lunch at a restaurant we found on our last visit called Da Fish Shack, bought some rum and walked around a little then went back to ship.

Ocho Rios, Jamaica
