Our cruise was one of the best we've had. Dining room head waiter, Razvan, was busy, efficient and cheerful, but so much more! He felt like a dear friend by the end of the cruise. What a sense of humor! Our room was kept immaculate. The employees were always cheerful, and so many asked us if we were having a good time. Very friendly. The food varied from good to excellent, no bad meals.

Our two Carnival excursions were well worth the money. On St. Kitts we went to the Brimstone fort. The van was very crowded and the air conditioning wasn't very efficient, but that for is amazing. In Puerto Rico we did the mixology and Salsa lesson. It started with a walking tour with our guide Daniel as a very enthusiastic historian. Besides a pina colada and learning how to mix two other tasty drinks, we had a nice treat of two skewers of chicken. The salsa lesson was fun, even though we never got good at it.

On the boat, the band in Vincent's was so good. We enjoyed going there almost every night. They made an effort to come talk to us, and it was a lot of fun to learn about their backgrounds. The shows didn't bowl us over, but they were entertaining. Loved the Caribbean 2 piece band on the Lido deck. They really set the mood. Read more
