Review summary

The specialty restaurant were a saving grace due to the atmosphere in the dining room. Special commendations for Rudi's and Pinnacle.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Fast and streamlined. Did not keep to the assigned schedule causing passenger crowding.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Dining room noisy, food mediocre. Finding drinking water was a hassle. Bars were not well stocked water and when found was too expensive. Rudi's and Pinnacle saved our trip, excellent food and service. Canaletto was terrible. Dive-In burgers not worth the 40 minute wait, New York Deli pizza not good, had scant topping and cracker crust. Lido as always, crowded and noisy, but food is good.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Due to Covid public areas were unsafe.

Entertainment

Avoided high traffic areas because passengers refused to wear masks.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All service staff should be commended for excellent serve. Friendly faces of the staff were always welcome

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Silverware had caked on food on 2 occasions. The rest of the ship was handled as best the staff could given the level of passenger on board. Beautiful ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Lovely cabin, made comfortable and inviting by the Attentive service of Budi and Natan.

Ship tip

There is no water package, be prepared to hunt for drinking water. It is very expensive. If you drink alcohol, there is plenty.

Ports of call

Grand Turk Island

Definitely would visit again.

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas
