Review summary

This was a great cruise could have used one additional port, we did stop in Jamaica for a medical emergency which put us into Aruba 8 hours late, but things do happen. Great food, great people, and plenty to do.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
If you have everything completed on the app before you get to the pier everything is super quick to board

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food in the dining room was very good and the windjammer was good as well they are still serving you in the buffet lines but they keep the lines moving no wait.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The NorthStar experience was pretty cool with a great view, bumper cars at sea was fun.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
They had a good variety of shows but some of them were only late shows.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Everyone was so happy to be serving us from the waiters, bar servers, to the room stewards.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
This was a different experience for us, first time on this class of ship, the layout was awesome and everything was easy to find. The ship was very clean and was one of the best cruises we have taken.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We always get balcony cabins, this one was arranged with the sofa next to the balcony rather than the bed which gave the room more space. There was more storage space than we have ever had before and the room was beautiful.

Ship tip

Make reservations for the IFLY and NorthStar as soon as you get on board.

Ports of call

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
This is a beautiful private island with plenty to do, we did not get off the ship this time because it was windy and cold, but we have visited the island before.

Oranjestad, Aruba

5 out of 5
Our excursion was cancelled but we have visited the island before and love it. We did get off the ship to do a little shopping.

Willemstad, Curacao

4 out of 5
No excursion just a little shopping.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
It is nice now that they let you wait in your cabin until your number is called. After your number is called the embarkation is seem less and very quick.
