Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship was clean and well maintained. We missed the Wheelhouse Bare being a secluded get away. It is now very much in the open on the main way.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
WE booked a balcony but were upgraded to a mini suite for a little extra room. There were four of us sharing the cabin. We had the beds set as a queen. Each evening the couch was converted to a bed and a bunk was lowered from the ceiling. There were curtains separating the sections

Ports of call

Falmouth, Jamaica

4 out of 5
We hired "Big Tony" for a four hour tour of the area. In addion to the usual stops we got to see both the richest and the poorest areas. He was very informative and answered all our questions. He also took us to a local restaurant for great jerk chicken at local prices.

Our daughter and grandson enjoyed visiting the sting rays and trutle farm.
