Review summary

It was a nice ship. This was a birthday cruise for me. The intinary was nice, the room was nice. The ship was clean. The staff was friendly. The only issue I had was the staff in The Regalia. My sister and I went in there looking at jewelry and no one came over and asked if they could assist us. The port and shopping expert Laura was no help either. We ended up shopping for jewelry in Aruba and Curacao.

It was a nice oceanview. My sister and I didn't spend much time in the room. We were busy exploring the ship.

Ship tip

Schedule your dining time for later. We only made our time twice. Try to get to the Solarium early

I loved this port. It was a bit windy when we arrived. My sister and I walked around and explored. We had dinner and drinks at Sharky's. We also bought some jewelry at Effy . We lost a little money at the casino

The port was nice. My sister and I took a taxi into the town. It was still rubble from the hurricanes and earthquakes.
