Review summary

It was great. The only part I did not like was the casino. The smoking was out of hand. And they now use 8 decks for blackjack. That is nuts.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Hibachi the last night was a nice ending. The solarium bistro just go there once it’s always the same food. Buffet was large is nice and the dining room was great. Room was on the eighth floor by city park which was phenomenal place to go in the mornings. Definitely recommend a room on the eighth floor by city park. Highly recommend you go to Wonderland for as some drinks.. seem to be a lot stronger if you like it that way ..ask for a handful of cotton candy lol Love the girl that was a greeter at the buffet she was awfully nice and cheerful saying washy washy and we danced together

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Plenty to do lots of fun if you partake. Also walk the track on the fifth floor to find shuffleboard outside a little hidden place.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Lots of shows wanted to go see enjoyed them all. Highly recommend you make a reservations online 30 days before/or when They allow you. If you don’t make the reservations get there at 35 minutes before and get on the standby line and you should be fine. the comedians.. the first guy always changes material the second one was a repeat if you go to the comedy club more than once. Just leave after the first guy on your second visit. Lol We had fun in the karaoke lounge the Irish pub next-door had an amazing guitar player singer till 1am. They have a running piano singer funny guy who played in the elevators and sometimes found him randomly around the ship plane wish he had his own bar

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff were five star …we have the best room steward ever he would fold my mess / hang my clothes every day I tipped nicely for this as a thank you. Also came by twice a day which is nice and they’re trying to cut back on at So I hear on some lines. Was is in a standard balcony room

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
What day of storage amen was able to unpack nicely and stick my Suitcases under the bed. Our placement was perfect I would highly recommend the eighth for we were in 8150 which is a great location near midship near the exit into the lobby of the floor can walk right into city park which was a great place to hang and get some breakfast/coffee. Just of course like something doesn’t have bigger we also had the best Stewart ever.

Ship tip

If the app says the restaurants are full don’t let that discourage you. The app and online sometimes show full but they have room. At least for us they did. Went to them after boarding and got what we wanted.

Ports of call

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

we did the ATV 4 wheeler got it on TripAdvisor was great They have a bus that picks you up just outside the cruise terminal area ask security for directions as the tourist desk relaxing Daisy on giving us the right location to go to. Just go that way lol. After a ATV walk to the beach - 3 minute walk and for 15 bucks you can get 2 lounge chairs and a stray large umbrella and enjoy the beach when done near you on left you will see a pier -you take the ferry for five bucks a person back to the ship. You pay when you exit the ferry. We took the 3:45pm one as it was starting to rain. Beach was clean. You sink fast. Lol
