Review summary

A very relaxing cruise to places that we may not have gone. Our trip itinerary was changed due to the hurricane damage at the original ports. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring these new places. The ship's staff was very friendly and professional.

Two medium sized pools, lots of deck chairs, a couple of bars and an outdoor grill—what more could you want?

Cabin / Stateroom

Great size for a cruise ship. The balcony was ample, the storage was more than we needed.

Ports of call

Ocho Rios, Jamaica

We went river tubing and swimming at the Blue Hole. It was an excellent trip.

George Town, Grand Cayman

Our snorkel trip was cancelled, but we found our own venue right off the coast and a good little restaurant for lunch and the day was good. We also visited their museum and found that interesting, as well.

Oranjestad, Aruba

We took the bus tour, climbed the rocks and went to the beach. The beach is great. The water is cloudy because the sand is so fine. So, not so great to snorkel, but a very nice place to go to the beach.

Willemstad, Curacao

Very nice town, good history tour of the city and a visit to the caves. All in all, very nice.

Kralendijk, Bonaire

The water is amazing. Great snorkeling right off the coast. We went to the marine park and felt like we were swimming in an aquarium.
