I took my girlfriend on her first cruise September 24-28 2006. I read a lot of reviews before I purchased the trip. I read enough good reviews that I was confident this would be a great cruise.
They really did clean up the SENSATION. The cabins are very nice. The bathrooms worked perfectly. No odor as mentioned in previous reviews.
The food was good, not great. Off season it seems there is a little less exuberance on board and at the destinations like Nassau and Freeport. Freeport is a waste, don't bother.
