Review summary

See review above. Note: due to fall weather we did hit choppy seas and had to forego taking advantage of the two sea days to play in the sun /pools etc. would not recommend this port departure in the fall is you are wanting sun and fun.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
It was nearly a breeze w no crowds and almost a straight walk on

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Hard to get dinner Rez for specialty. And one in which we felt very rushed by the waiter. Only ate in the dining room twice. The one meal was good but the other was awful. All dinner venues seemed to lack seasoning. Buffet was as expected. Port side bbq was pretty good…but the best item was burnt ends. The rest was inconsistent. Dogs and pizza are good. Wish the dog were open late night for alt options instead of only pizza. Mexican was good but also wish it was one through dinner as an option.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Wish adventure ocean was open during lunch or dinner hours so we could enjoy a date dinner with hubby. Kids got use of the activities on board for only a couple days. Sea day weather was not on our side and one day slides and pools completely closed.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The Aqua 80’s hands down the best ever!!! Didn’t waste time on Cats as that’s not really family friendly to keep kid’s attention. Wish they chose a better main show. Rez for shows booked early and had to wait to get onboard to book them.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
Wish in some days they had donut hours to watch kids. But the staff was amazing and kids had a great time.

Fit 5 which was with 3 kids. Honestly how much you aren’t really spending in the room it works great. Awesome access to AO.

Ports of call

Port Canaveral, Florida

Arrived to late to really maximize a real excursion for cost value.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

2 out of 5
Horrible design. Hard to find areas, restaurants and navigate. Even with the “map” felt like we were walking in circles. Bathrooms NOT easy to find. Felt like due to the design we missed out on enjoying the island.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5
Baha Bay was amazing. Easy to navigate the park. Clean. Easy to locate restaurants and restrooms. Didn’t require much walking to get to other parts of the park. Only with our port time was longer.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We walked our luggage off. Quick process.
