Review summary
My favorite part of the cruise was getting off of the cruise every single day and exploring the islands. The service from the female waitstaff and my woman housekeeper was awful. All of the men working on the cruise were very sweet and cordial.
This was probably the most boring cruise I've ever been on with very little activities and the worst "nightclub" I've ever seen. Karaoke was in a "lounge" that looked like the rec room of a nursing home every night. The parties and night time activities were lacking in good music, substance and ambiance. You would have a much, much better time on a Carnival ship.
ALL of the beach towels are stained with other people's sunscreen. It's absolutely disgusting. Every day I made the staff find me fresh towels with no stains on them. Who wants to dry off with someone else's stains??
The food was beyond subpar. One night, I ordered baked ziti. What I received was ziti noodles in a marinara sauce with broccoli and carrots and cheese shaved on top. That is NOT baked ziti. The buffet was always the best bet and even that left a lot to be desired.
The drinks were great and the bartenders were very friendly and accommodating. Otherwise, I'm happy I spent very little time on the ship and got to get off each day.
