Had a wonderful time. It was my first cruise, so nothing to compare it to. Great food, fun activities, interesting people. Can't wait to do it again.

Food and Dining
5 out of 5
MDR was exceptional every night. We chose my time dining, so we were on Deck 5. Our waiters, Standley (head waiter) and Justin (assistant waiter) were outstanding. There were 6 in our party for dinner every night. Standley and Justin remembered us by name, knew our drink preferences and brought out our bottles of wine that we kept there. On the first evening, a member of our group requested sweet potato as a substitute for white potatoes. The next evening she was presented with two of the largest sweet potatoes we'd ever seen!

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
From Geedee our room steward, Stanley and Justin in the MDR, our favorite bar waitress Ty (Safari/Schooner and all over) the level of hospitality and service was top notch.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
I like the layout of the ship. It is very easy to get around. I found Serenade to be very well kept and maintained.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Our cabin was very comfortable. The mattress was a bit firm for my liking. The size of our cabin was just right for the two of us. Plenty of closet space and under bed storage for luggage. The bathroom seemed small upon arrival, but really is a good size and is set up nicely. No space is wasted. The cabin and bathroom were always impeccably cleaned.
Ship tip
It's a beautiful ship, but not a modern ship. There is plenty to do, but none of the ice rink, bumper cars, waterslides of the larger, newer ships.
My most favorite beach. Rented UTVs from Dawn at Ruff Riders. Rode from Orenjestad (port) across the island (about 40 min) to Baby Beach. Beautiful island.
Favorite island. Beautiful port city. Shopped and walked around Willemstad. Only reason we didn't go to the beach was because we simply had too much sun by the last port.
The port was easy to maneuver...after we spent 2 hrs standing in line waiting to go through customs with our luggage. The taxi stand/ride sharing area is convenient to the exit.
