Review summary

This is one of the most beautiful ships on which we have cruised. There were many large fresh flower arrangements. Everything appeared to be spotless. The Explorations Library is the largest I have seen on any ship and has a huge selection of books as well as games, DVD's, and other materials.

Ports of call

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

5 out of 5

St. Thomas is a favorite port of mine. I love the shopping and beaches.

Don't Miss: Don't miss Megan's Bay for a lovely, relaxing day at the beach.

Oranjestad, Aruba

3 out of 5

The island was pretty much flooded from extra heavy rains all night long and the morning of our arrival. The beach we went to was very nice.

Roseau, Dominica

1 out of 5

We were in Roseau, Dominica on a Sunday and most things were closed. The island seemed to be very poor and undeveloped for tourism.

Willemstad, Curacao

5 out of 5

We had a good island tour with a local taxi driver.
