We had fun food was good, service was good, ship was clean, entertainment so, so. We bought the key and felt like it was not worth the price. We didn't need it to embark or to get off at the ports or for the shows, as well as getting on the rock wall which we never had to wait for any of those things. NOT WORTH THE $$$. We should have bought the internet package separate because that and the disembarkation was the only things we got out of it.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Main dining service and food was excellent our waiter Ashvir and assistant waiter Adikash were fantastic . We went to Chops Grill on my 50th birthday and we were sat next to an exit door. On the other side of the door was the mystery dinner theater which we could hear better then the music in the restaurant. My wife received her mushroom soup and is tasted like mushroom gravy and not soup. The table bread was onion bread which we both took one bite of and pushed away. My wife ordered her fillet medium and it came medium rare to rare. They took her steak away to cook it more and while I was eating my so so rib-eye I realized I was eating alone and that my 50th birthday dinner was not very enjoyable. We talked to the manager and left at that time to try and save my evening. Not a good time.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The cabin was clean and comfortable, smaller then other ships balcony rooms even though it was supposed to be an oversized balcony cabin. The glass on the balcony was covered in something that obscured the view and should have been cleaned. The room was tired and needs remodeled but we were comfortable and our steward kept it clean. Because it is an older ship one of the days the balcony was repainted for ship maintenance and we had to vacate while that happened.
Went diving with Adventures in Diving STX and Mitch was very patient since it was my first dive. It was enjoyable and I recommend. We spent the rest of the day snorkeling at the beach right by the port and saw lots of cool fish.
There was a riot on the French side of the island that the cruise director called a strike to down play the riots and we were told to stay on the dutch side of the island. We had planned on going to the French side so we took a water taxi to the beach close to port instead. It was fun but one of the servers at a restaurant we went to was being extra nice to my wife which was great until she gave my wife a hug and used it as an opportunity to reach her hand into my wife's bag until she saw that I saw what she was doing and she then played it off. Watch your things while you are there.
