Review summary

We met two people at our hotel and we shared a ride to the port. We ended up doing so much together that we made lifelong friends. We are planning another cruise with them. This just shows that your cruise is what you make of it. Yes, we had a lot of rain as it is the rainy season for the Caribbean. I heard so many complaints. You are on a ship with all you can eat, drink, all the fun and entertainment you want. Why complain? Enjoy yourself

Perfect place for a quick snack like nachos or a quick meal is you have a show to get to. Great food.

Entertainment

We enjoyed almost all of the musicians. The atrium band wasn’t our favorite but it was still enjoyable. We loved the uptown boys. If you love billy Joel don’t miss this show. Comedians were good. Syd Normans is always fun between the Rumours show and the karaoke.

Ship tip

Book everything you can as soon as you can. Most restaurants fill up fast. Ocean Blue is small so they have very limited room. Venture out and try something new. You never know what show or activity you will like until you try them.

Ports of call

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5
Our favorite port. I would definitely take a vacation here. Beautiful and clean city. We did a tour of the Hato cave and city. The fort they made into a mall is so nice. The walking bridge was crazy. I have never seen a bridge swing open like it did.

Bridgetown, Barbados

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
I have to say this was the easiest disembarkation we have had. The only glitch was finding our bus to the airport. The pier was really crowded with cruisers trying to get on and off at the same time.
