This vacation was the best! We loved the ship, the food, the shows, the staff, the drinks, the casino, the decor, the activities, the pools, and all of it!
The Solarium was my favorite place to hang out because it was climate controlled but felt like you were outside. The shows were the best I've seen on a cruise, I love their use of lights!
We preferred the buffet to the dining room because it included all of the same food as the dining room and more in case we didn't like the themed menu. Elvis Loco Fresh and Sorrentos were also delicious and I loved that fresh cut fruit was always available at the Promenade Cafe.
I didn't have a single issue, loved it all!
Embarkation

So quick and easy. We were through the terminal and on the ship within 10 minutes for our 11am arrival.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We really enjoyed the buffet and how it included everything that was in the dining room and more. There were even lobster tails and crab claws. El Loco Fresh was fantastic, and we loved getting late night pizza at Sorrentos (yum) or snacks at the Promenade Cafe.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
I loved the Solarium so much. With multiple polls and hot tubs in a beautiful climate controlled atmosphere, it was a great place to hang out. We also played mini golf, did some trivia, and attended some karaoke.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
This ship had the best shows I've seen so far. The All In production was a feast for the eyes and the ice skating show was finally modern dances and full of great music. The Aqua80stoo was fantastic as well. Don't miss the bands in the Music Hall as well, they had great line ups and the comedy shows were great.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Everyone was fantastic on the ship. We loved our room steward Elvira and the bartender Made at Bell & Barley. But everyone was friendly and helpful.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
This ship was the best yet! I loved the decor and attention to detail. There was so much to take in, it was like one big art gallery. The public restrooms were HUGE and I loved that all restroom doors opened with the wave of your hand. No touching them ever! I also loved the new elevator system. We were chasing more elevators than waiting.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We booked a GTY interior cabin and bid for an Oceanview or Balcony but we didn't get them due to the ship being full. The room was nice, comfortable, clean, and had so much storage space and a lot of plugs. We were very happy with our interior room.
Ship tip
Book your shows in advance and arrive 30 minutes before the start of the show for a good seat. They start letting non- reservations in at 15 minutes before showtime. On the first day of the cruise the free laser tag and ice skating will show up to be booked in the app. Don't miss it!
Nassau is my least favorite port. There's lot of shopping but a lot of the same things over and over. The vendors in the straw market are kind of pushy. Junkanoo Beach is okay once, but it's kind of small. If you go to Atlantis you can only see a very little bit of it without paying for admission. Cabbage Beach is okay but you have to take a can to get there. The best bet after visiting once (everyone should visit once) is booking an excursion or resort for a day.
My all time favorite port! The best food, the best self snorkeling, the best beaches, and everything is free! Get a full face snorkel mask and go snorkel around the rocks on Chill Island. We saw thousands of fish as well as stingrays, jellyfish, and crabs. The Cuban sandwiches on the main buffet are fantastic and the mozzarella sticks and funnel cakes at the Snack Shack are so fun! You can find volleyball, Pickleball, foot pool, ping pong, and more around the island.
