Review summary

March is a great time to visit the Caribbean and the islands chosen were some of the best. The mangoes were ripening and the custard apples were just ripe in the DR and in the commonwealth of Dominica. For some one raised in NE India nothing can even come close. Happy sailing every one .....

Embarkation

4 out of 5
As smooth as it comes. I gave a 4* instead of 5 only because COVID has put a damper on everything

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Comparable to only the best of the land side restaurants

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Enjoyed the pools, fitness center and jogging track. I rate the activities a 5* because they fit the clientele (including me) like a T.

Ship tip

Although well stabilized its still a small ship.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida Did not visit port

Flew in the day of departure and flew out the day of arrival.

Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic

5 out of 5
Great port shadowed by the volcano and more like the rest of the DR than (say) Punta Cana. An excellent city and enjoyable excursion if you are not looking for clones of Miami everywhere!

San Juan, Puerto Rico

4 out of 5
We have been here twice before this. However, the countryside excursion was a good one indeed.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

4 out of 5
This was our third visit but still enjoyed the excursion to Nevis.

Roseau, Dominica

5 out of 5
Great port to visit and the Best of Dominica excursion was really one of the best.

St. John's, Antigua

4 out of 5
Our second visit and turned out we took the same excursion again!!

Gustavia, St. Barthelemy Did not visit port

El Kapitan decided to cancel this port because of choppy sea. However, two other cruise ships did make the port. Were they better sailors? Or, may be our captain did not want to put a scratch on the brand new ship.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
As smooth as it gets.
