Review summary

Enjoyed a nice, relaxing cruise. Great staff and great meals. We loved the refurbished Signature Suite with the new large, interactive TV. We were disappointed that we could not tender to Grand Cayman, however that was a safety issue. Our only complaint is that the Internet packages are becoming exceedingly expensive. Those who wish to check-in online for their return flight home and pre-select a good seat a day in advance are forced to purchase a full one-day internet package.
