Review summary

The itinerary was seven ports which was great! This was our favorite cruise so far!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Getting on board in Baltimore is always quick and easy. Fifteen minutes from the car to on board the ship.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We ate most of our meals in the WJ because service was slow in the MDR. We have no complaints on the taste or quality of the food but by the end of the cruise we were getting bored with the variety. The desserts had limited offerings and the only cake on the entire cruise was red velvet.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
There was always something going on but our favorite activity is relaxing and watching others participate.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
All of the entertainers were very good. Some were fantastic!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff on this ship is by far the friendliest we have ever encountered on any of our cruises!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship was very clean and well maintained. Much better than Enchantment.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We bid on a spacious ocean view and our bid was accepted. Plenty of room. Large window. Very nice.

Ship tip

This is a small friendly ship. Don’t expect the ship to keep you entertained. Make your own happiness.

Ports of call

Frederiksted, St. Croix, U.S.V.I.

3 out of 5
The beach is not the greatest. A steep slope to enter the water and the bottom is strewn with rocks and possible construction debris. $60 for two chairs and an umbrella.

Labadee (Cruise Line Private Island)

5 out of 5
First time to Labadee and we loved it! Numerous beautiful beaches and water. Food was delicious.

Fort-De-France, Martinique

5 out of 5
We enjoyed our four hour excursion of touring the island.

Basseterre, St. Kitts

5 out of 5
Took a boat to Nevis. Hit a rain squall on the way. Terrifying but fun.

Castries, St. Lucia

5 out of 5
Took an excursion to the Pitons. Exciting boat ride and beautiful views.

Bridgetown, Barbados

5 out of 5
Beautiful beach (Carlisle Bay) and water.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
We literally just walked right off the ship with our passports in hand. It had started to snow prior to docking but the crews were doing a good job taking care of the parking lot.
