Review summary

I just returned from a 5 night Caribbean cruise on Serenade of the Seas. Three friends and I went on the cruise to celebrate my 40th birthday. It was fantastic!! We left the hubbies, kids and stress behind. The ship was spectacular and the service was even better. The crew was very friendly, helpful and happy. Our cabin steward and waiter took very good care of us. On my birthday our cabin steward gave me a bottle of champagne on ice with 4 glasses to share with my friends. It was an unexpected treat! The food was great both in the dining room and at the buffet. There were plenty of activities going on for all to enjoy. The time in port was good. Enough time to shop and sightsee or go to the beach. I would highly recommend the Serenade of the Seas. Next cruise, I plan to take my family. They would love it!

We only went to the shopping district here. If you want to buy jewelry it's great otherwise I wouldn't recommend it.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

We did the PInel Island snorkel tour. The snorkeling was not great. The beach was nice. Wouldn't do it again. Shopped on the pier which was enjoyable. Still lots of jewelry. Wouldn't go back to St. Maarten.

St. John's, Antigua

Went to Runaway Beach for the afternoon. The beach was beautiful and the rum punch was great too! I loved the markets on the pier for shopping.
