My friend and I boarded from Ft. Lauderdale, onto this huge boat, and into our deck 3 cabin. We were surprised at the enormity of the ship, and took a few hours to look at all the activities it had to offer. We were cruising to eastern Caribbean but due to the very stormy weather we endured 4 days high winds and pouring rain having to walk like penguins wherever we walked. In fact, we had to bypass our 1st port, Laramie Haiti due to weather and instead landed in San Juan for a day. We were very disappointed and felt the captain should have compensated us by landing somewhere else for a few hours, but he didn't. The entertainment on the ship was fantastic, we were able to play mini golf, eat at Rockets, nice food at the dining room. Never felt like you were bumping into people as you walked. The Promenade offered many activities while we were 'stuck' on board for 4 days. The buffet dining room was fantastic, we easily found all we wanted. Some days the supper there offered a better selection than the dining room although the fancier dining room was great too. We organized land tours in San Juan and St. Marten and St. Kitts through Viator and had great tour guides, it was worth it. But st. Kitts was too long and it's an impoverished island with little to see. Everyone on board was starving for sun and beach so tried to find a place on the beach. I loved this ship and would/will book it again like many people I talked to who had been on that boat 3 and 4 times. It's my favorite cruise line. But I would not like to cruise with that captain again! Wish we could re-live that trip esp coming from far, montreal. We actually enjoyed our lower deck cabin with a big window where we could watch the very high waves.
