This is our 6th Cruise. The embarkation was fine... they let you onto the boat earlier than they say... what they don't tell you is that they kick you off the next week before you even wake up!!!Our cabin suite was decent size and you could turn around in the bathroom but still nowhere near as large as the Carnival Pride/Glory.The boat is absolutely amazing, so much so that you don't want to get off the boat...the ports can not compare.The food was actually very good but do not bother paying the extra fee to go to Chops because the dining room food was actually better. (I heard Portofino's was better).As far a ports make sure you book an activity in Labadee....it is more like a private island and not a tourist place. In Jamaica we swam with the horses... it was unique but you end up swimming and drinking in water with feces floating all over... the horse may throw you and all the Purelle in the world can not clean you up!!!(It left a bad taste in my mouth)Flowrider was great, service excellent, Richard Spacey is phenomenal and sets the standard for all cruise directors!!!Not too bad to get deck chair and so many options as far as activities... something for everyone...you need 38 hours a day to do everything!!I strongly recommend that you make your child go to kids club from the get go...mine was reluctant this year but I think if maybe she would have gone at the start she would have found friends earlier.(although once she went she have a blast)My only complaint is the debarkation...maybe they could have given a box breakfast or at least put Richard on the plank to wave goodbye

And the entertainment was top notch!!!
