Review summary

The Baths Virgin Gorda were beautiful. Antigua historical tour and beach was interesting and fun. Snorkeling in Barbados was the best. Chartered a fishing boat in St Lucia. My husband reeled in a lot of fish. Road four wheelers in St Marteen. This was a top vacation for us.

Every meal was so good on this trip. Cagney’s and Paloma’s were so good. Los Lobos was the wonderful surprise on this cruise. Le Bistro was fabulous too.

Los Lobos

Amazing! If there ever was a fine dining Mexican restaurant, this would be it. Table side guacamole!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We enjoyed the slides, racetrack and mini golf. Yes, they cost a few extra bucks, but it was worth it. Loved the new interactive mini golf. We also did pickle ball and some of the other games.

Entertainment

Beetlejuice and Icons were excellent. I am a Fleetwood Mac fan and loved this show. I saw it on Prima too. So good.

Ship tip

Do not listen to negative reviews. It takes a day to get use to layout. The food is amazing. If your drink is not strong enough tell them. Paying a little extra for some fun activities is worth it. I was on Prima and Viva. If you can’t enjoy yourself and everything they have to offer….you cannot be pleased in my opinion.
