This was my DH and my 6th and 7th Splendor cruise, respectively, in the past year and a half (I took one without him). Most were to Saint John, although one of the Saint John's last year ended up in Bermuda. This is to say, we knew what to expect and we really like the ship and its crew.

A few highlights - we are fans of the seaday brunch, which we use for both a breakfast and lunch option. Love the popovers they serve from 12-1 only. Also enjoyed the MDR dinners (we were on late seating), but the dinner menu feels a bit tired - although the elegant night lobster is always good.

I particularly enjoyed Greg, the acoustic guitarist, who plays most evenings in the Lobby. He is really talented and very funny. We also enjoyed the trio that plays at the casino stage, Music Boardwalk.

Cabin 1A

We love the 1As with portholes. We were in 2211 this cruise and 2217 last cruise. The room seems spacious and the portholes provide light and some views. The downside is that you can't put the beds together.
