Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Our cabin steward provided excellent service; the room was always clean and well maintained. He provided whatever we asked. However, the sofa in the room could use some attention as it was stained.

Ship tip

Be prepared to do a lot of walking.

Ports of call

Cape Liberty (Bayonne), New Jersey

5 out of 5
Cruise ship terminal was clean, well maintained, staff was efficient and courteous. Very easy to get around.

Port Canaveral, Florida

3 out of 5
Getting into Port Canaveral at 1 pm and leaving the ship at 2 pm did not allow for much in the way of excursions. We did the Hilton beach pass, which was a nice afternoon. However, since this port isn't like Caribbean ports, there wasn't much to do in the way of shopping. Would not recommend getting off the ship if it's a short day.

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5
This would have been a great stop if the weather had cooperated. It was rainy, overcast most of the day. But, we did enjoy Hideaway Beach and shopping the Marketplace. It's a great island, though.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Amazingly quick and efficient.
