Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
ate in the Main Dining room on deck 3 for dinner each night and ate lunch in the dining room just once. food was tasteful and I could always find something on the menu to eat. loved the Windjammers setup. it circled above the Central Park cabins. plenty of seating including bar-like seating in front of the windows overlooking Central Park. variety of different types of foods, desserts, and fruit. ate in the Windjammers for lunch 6 out of the 7 days. didn't get to eat at Mason's Jar, Sorrento, Dog House, Solarium Bistro.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
cabin was roomy and clean. plenty of storage. bed was comfy but just a little low. only getting room service either AM or PM worked out well. I chose the PM service (4P-8P). Cabin Steward kept my towels stocked so that I had plenty to get through each evening.

Ship tip

have patience, relax, and enjoy your cruise. although ship holds large number of guests, it didn't feel crowded nor did I witnessed extremely long lines except for Guests Services.

Ports of call

Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas

3 out of 5
ship docked on the other side of the island. was here in Sep2022 and prefer the other side of the island where there's plenty of vendors at the port or you can walk or catch the bus and go downtown.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten

3 out of 5
was here in Sep2022. unfortunately was not able to venture over to the French side of the island. picked up a few souvenirs and went back to the ship.

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

4 out of 5
food was good. shopping is pricey.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
had to get wheelchair assistance. left Karaoke Bar little after 730A and was outside by 8A waiting on the hotel shuttle. debarkation went just as smoothly the embarkation.
