Review summary

Overall a great cruise with incredible weather. Always a sad day to leave the ship. i guess one day I will be on the perfect cruise with no issues, but I doubt it. All in all near perfect.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Dining rooms every night for dinner, a great selection, presentation, and service. Food is outstanding. The pizza in Alfredo's and on the Lido deck has taken a nose dive however. Not sure of the problem there but crust was flat and tasteless in both venues.

Onboard Activities

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The entertainment was great, shows were repetitive from year to year, but new cast and a few new acts keep it fresh.

Children's Programs

No children.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
We did have a problem that was not immediately addressed by management. We had a slope in the one bed. They are pushed together to for a single bed, however one side was tilted outboard. We contacted steward and he contacted superiors...we heard nothing. Went to the desk and was told they would look into it. A supervisor looked at bed and agreed....but nothing was done. We again approached desk and spoke with a manager and was told they had no available beds....so I guess sleep on an uncomfortable bed? The last night it was replaced magically.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Staff does an amazing job keeping ship clean. It is starting to show some wear and tear. Salt water is a harsh environment.

Cabin / Stateroom

They are small but functional. Very clean and well maintained.

Embarkation was flawless.

St. John's, Antigua

It's run down, facilities are beaten by time and weather. A bit too pushy cab drivers. Other than that the water is beautiful.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

Port facilities are top notch, if you don't want to go to a beach...everything you need is right here. Visited the Marriot on a day pass...water was beautiful.....nice location.

Kralendijk, Bonaire

The best of the best! People are very helpful, everywhere on the island. Went to Spice Beach for the day. $2.50 cab ride. $5.00 chairs. Not much of a beach but a nice dock to get in water...incredible displays of aquatic life feet from shore, not a good bathing beach, (you have to swim). Staff is attentive and friendly....good food and drinks, very reasonable. Small pool and a dive shop top the list of amenities. Never had the feeling I was getting fleeced. A great experience!

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

BUSY! Disembarkation was smooth. We stayed a day after cruise and did Hollywood beach. Very beautiful strip...very active.

Smoothest to date at any port. They have come a long way.
