Review Summary
The ship was clean and well-maintained. I liked the idea that hand sanitizers were available all over the ship to help prevent the spreading of germs.Ship Experiences
Food and Dining
The food on the lunch and breakfast buffet was great; however, the main dining room could use some improvement. The specialty restaurants are good (with the exception of Mama's Italian Kitchen) but those are all extra.

we had a mini-suite on Deck 11--very nice.
Ports of Call
Do NOT take the beach excursion. The resort is old and run-down and you have to pay extra for beach umbrellas. The transportation to and from the beach was horrible (old school buses w/o air conditioning) and not enough of them.
Don't Miss: I think you'd have to find that on your own. People who did the sting ray tour which was supposed to be a must see were also disappointed.
