No problem here.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
The problem is in the buffet. Need a better system for the people using the buffet. People reach over the first row of food pans to get to what is in the back. This causes possible contamination of the food in front. Things falling off of clothing, people touching food, clothing touching food, etc... People need to be able to use both sides of the food island. This would solve most of the problems cited.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Fitness center was good but need to have a more lively environment while working out. Music is needed that keeps you pumping.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The female comedian was given three nights to perform. A terrible show and she should of be given only one night if that.

Children's Programs

No children

Only problem was the size of the bathroom. These to be more roomy..

Ship tip

Make sure you go when there will be less children. School vacation is not the time to go. To many scooters and special needs people was also somewhat of a problem.

Should not of pulled in. Arrived at 6pm and it was almost dark. Why did the ship go here.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

1 out of 5
Arrived Christmas day and everything was closed except the bars and a cheese factory. The trolley tour we went on was terrible and the guide didn't even celebrate Christmas. Poor performance all around.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

This was an awesome stop. the rail and sail was the best especially the sail part. Much partying and the crew was outstanding. Highly recommend this tour.

Was that the cruise plan when you booked or did it change after?
