Smaller ship with a big heart! This cruise is great. Their Team made the cruise. You can forget the negative reviews. We had a Blast. Great service and great food. The ship is beautiful. Great job with the upgrades. We did not arrive until 2:pm. That's cutting it close but we virtually just walked right on with no wait. Our room was ready and the luggage showed up quickly. Our Room Steward, Tony, was the best we have ever had. The room was always stocked , clean, and included ice. The different ports were all good. We rented scooters in Key West and hit all the right spots. Cozumel was great also. This was our third visit there. Normally go to Mr. Sancho's Beach resort. Taxi's are about $20 there and $20 back. The ship had good entertainment. It is smaller so lower your expectations and you will have fun. No reservations were required anywhere. We loved the slower pace. The pool is too small but we made it work. The people were friendly and we had no issues cooling off. Did not have to fight for a chair. The dining room was great. The food was good every night. Also, pay the extra money for Chop's Steak House one night. It was worth it. Again great food and Service. Overall I highly recommend this cruise.

Cabin Review

Ocean View Stateroom

Cabin H

I picked this room for the price. It had a big window and ocean view. It is right in the middle of everything. The Dining room is on the same level. We just walked down the hall for Dinner. The room is small but OK with just two of us. If you want more room, then pay for the upgrade. The room attendant was very special. I hope you get Tony. He is the best we ever had.

Port Reviews

Key West

Key West is a must see. We just rented two scooters and checked out all the different spots. There is a lot to do and see. We had a great sunny day. We had lunch at Sloppy Joe's. Good food and entertainment.
