Review summary

This was a relaxing cruise - the staff were very pleasant and efficient. Will recommend it.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

The embarkation process was very smooth - there were no lines. Once you checked in you were to sit and wait for your time to go on the ship. This was also done quickly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The different restaurants had a nice variety. I ate mainly in the dining rooms and did 3 of the specialty restaurants. The food and service were of a high standard.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

As this was an older ship the pools were smaller. There were no rock climbing or water parks.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

The entertainment was good. Some of the bands need some more life.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

The ship was clean. The design made it difficult at times to locate areas. After one day we became accustomed.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

It was cozy and clean.

Ship tip

Do not expect the entertainment and activities of a bigger ship.

Ports of call

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

5 out of 5

The sea was very refreshing - we chose the area that was the furthest end of the island so there were no stones. It was a relaxing day.

Key West, Florida

We did our own touring. We went to the Southernmost Point, took pictures at 0 Mile, had conch fritters and lobster roll and ate key lime pie. We would say it was an easy port to manoeuvre. The weather was thankfully very lovely - sunny but cool.
