Review summary

This ship was perfect. The massive size made for plenty of room for everyone to have personal space. Avoid the elevators if you can. They can take a while at peak times. We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise and can’t wait to come back.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Embarkation was fairly easy. Was a little confusing with the amount of people and lines were everywhere. Wasn’t sure where we should be. Once we were in the right line we breezed right through.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We utilized the main dining room and Windjammer. The evening meal was fantastic. We had a perfect table location, awesome wait staff and the food was great too.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Everything we did was great. Plenty of pool, hot tub space, and never had any problems finding a few chairs to sit in.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
First rate shows. We saw Flight and Hairspray in the Royal Theater. They far exceeded our expectations.

Children's Programs

Our kids are older than most of the programs offered.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabins were bigger than we were used to. Very clean, and the shower was roomy with great water pressure.

Ports of call

Miami, Florida Did not visit port

Embarkation just stayed on ship.

Nassau, Bahamas

2 out of 5
We did not do an excursion. We just wanted to venture out and do some shopping. Waste of time. By the time you make it out to the street you are bombarded with private tour offers and even pushy sales people. Expected it but felt it was worse than other ports we have visited previously. My suggestion if you want to get off the boat make sure to book an excursion.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
I can’t say enough about Perfect Day. I could do a cruise with that being the main port and stay several days. Food was better than expected. Oasis Lagoon was relaxing. We visited South Beach and Chill Island. Our kids loved it just as much as we did.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Easiest we have ever had for disembarkation.
