I really enjoyed my cruise I had bumps here and there but did not let it ruin my cruise. I relaxed caught some sun and always had a drink in my hand when the bars were open. The bonus for us was the port was near home and it was easy on and easy off without the extra plane ride to the port. The only thing I can say is that I rather travel when the weather is warmer.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
My schedule time was for 12:30 so driving in was a long traffic line but move quickly. Long line thru security but again it move quickly. Check-in was by far the fastest I was on the ship in matter of 7 mins or so.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Windjammer - Lacking variety for breakfast. I ate here a few times and got bored quickly for everything being the same. Lunch was okay nothing special. Dinner was okay simple food.
Chops - My favorite as always food was good but one thing I did not like was the shrimp cocktail felt it said in the fridge to long.
Playmakers food was okay just bar food just a long wait for food and drink if you do get there when it is busy.
Porkside BBQ - Really good and we enjoyed the quality of the food The most we enjoyed was the ribs. The side was okay nothing more to write about that.
Sorento's Pizza is always my fan of a quick bite but it did get really busy after shows.
Cafe Promenade - Lacking items so I only ate one mini sandwich that was nasty so I did not bother going back.
Park Cafe - Ate for breakfast was and food was cold we had then heat it twice and still it seem cold Their coffee was not great for me.. Then we had lunch from there and the process for the Roast Beef sandwich they did not dip the meat I had to make sure this put some of the sauce but again they really did not want to do it. They didn't have many sides.
Dog House -The hot dogs were luke-warm not hot it was good but would been better hot.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Pools - Were nice not a fan are the chairs so close to each other you pretty much on top of the other person so I move them a little bit but then was told I was in the way of walk path. The chairs by the water slides are horrible when people come down you get wet and if your there with a drink in your hand get ready for water to go in it. The other activities are great like rock climbing, zip lining, slides and so on but did not do it.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
I really enjoy the Aqua show. I'm not a fan of Cats and the other shows I did not do but heard it was either okay or good.
Children's Programs
I did not have my children with me.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
My room steward was great. I had a problem with my toliet and we contacted him and within minutes they came knocking on my door to fix it. Some of the bar staff was great especially in the Lime in the Coconut. The waiter's at the pool decks were great and in Chops.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
The upkeep was good I did not see much cleaning per say but the ship was clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The cabin was a nice size the only thing I moved that was in the way is the little table they have that had the garbage pail. The balcony size was good not small at all. The bathroom is manageable not a lot of cabinet space.
Ship tip
Go with an open mind don't have high expectations because it might not be what you are looking for.
This port is great. I went to the Oasis Lagoon Pool and the pool is nice and big. The bar drinks were not so great. I just stick with the beer instead. The snack shack was really good and the setup was quick getting the food to you. I did not explore the rest of the island with the 2 ships in port it seem so much people even though it did not seem like that.
I did the self disembarkation and easily walked off with my bags. The foot traffic was moving and the face recognition with customs. With all that I was off the ship and out on the curb in a matter of 10 minutes or less.
