Review summary

For a first time traveling with seasoned cruisers we enjoyed ourselves a lot. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The only thing we really needed was a common item I PHONE CABLE broke when we unpacked and had no way to charge up until we went to a store in bermuda. If the ships store can stock these items it would reduce the anxiety of passengers in need of these commonly needed items.

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5
Our cabin smelled musty/old. We found articles of clothing under the bed that were not ours. It was hard to get around the odor without leaving the doors open. If the cabins had hard surface flooring perhaps they would be more sanitary or able to be cleaned more effectively. Given the turnaround times on the ship there is no time to clean the state rooms effectively. We were really turned off by the stateroom smell. Our travel companions had similar issue. The layout of the cabins have choke points that you have to navigate in order to get out to the balcony, you have to walk the same places everyone else does, not very sanitary as most people are barefoot. Again, HARD SURFACE FLOORING would gone long way. Ditch the carpeting it holds the odors.

Ship tip

Bring extra charging cable for your devices as the ships store doesn't stock these common items in case of failure, we had to wait till we got to Bermuda to find a charging cable.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Our exit was par.We got off the ship within 5 min of being ready. Nothing exceptional.
