Review summary

Over all the Staff made the trip- funny, witty and kinds. The food was better some nights than others. The décor of the ship is very modern with a relaxed luxury vibe. Higher end design than the other classes offered. Not sure if my teenager would have a good time if she didn't have someone with her. Over all would sail again the the Prima Class.

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Find Vladimir Jankovic from Serbia- Soleil Bar, Aft Deck 8- He was AMAZING! Very Funny- kept our drinks flowing. The best bar tender hands down. When he asks you what to drink.... say "Surprise Me!!" Other server Franklin Mercado from the Philippians what an amazing voice... he was singing while he was closing down the Surfside Café. Must try a Smoky Peach Margarita and Monkey Business in Los Lobas area.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
There are a lot of activates if you like the Race Car track or slides.... if you want to relax wish the main pool was larger and more infinity pools...

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The Theater was nice, needs to be larger for the amount of people on the ship. Not enough seats for the amount of people. Beetlejuice was great!

Ship tip

Look at the hallway rug... see what direction the triangles are heading... the tips of the triangles face the forward of the ship- This will help guide the direction you are heading to the forward or back/aft of the ship.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida

5 out of 5
The port was nice.. not enough parking at the actual terminal, had to drive to another terminal further away. The ship was a about 10 min walk away.

Great Stirrup Cay (Cruise Line Private Island), Bahamas

4 out of 5

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Easy to disembark.
