Review summary

Great weekend getaway with a group, having the drink package included in the ticket was one less thing to worry about. The staff really made the trip as everyone was friendly and outgoing.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Embarkation was fine, I arrived late as I was trying to work a half-day. Arrived at 2pm and there wasn't much of a line. All of the staff were friendly and the process didn't take long at all.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We didn't eat at the specialty restaurants but I was surprised at the quality of the buffet and main dining rooms. I always have low expectations of food quality on ships only because they have to cook for so many people it is difficult to keep the quality aspect high. However, the main dining room dinners were good and the desserts were tasty. The buffets had a good variety and was good for a quick bite.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Wonderful staff, very attentive and accommodating. Answered any question with a smile and were truly trying to make the cruise the best they could for all guests.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Cleaning staff were great, cleaned the room multiple times a day always leaving a towel animal on the bed. Very attentive and friendly. The boat itself was generally clean so no complaints there.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Cabin was what we paid for, a small inside so we weren't expecting much but it was comfortable. The bathroom was small but not too small so that was nice.

Ship tip

The white party was a really fun experience, always try to get a spot on the pool deck early as the best spots fill up pretty quickly.

Ports of call

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

4 out of 5
Lots of chairs and beautiful beach, good times

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
so quick, had to go to work that morning so was eager to get off the ship fast and we just walked right off, no line or delays.
