My family of 5 (all adults) just returned from the Nov 12 7-day cruise to Barbados, St. Lucia, Antigua, St. Maarten and St Thomas. This is a wonderful itinerary if you want to sample several islands in one trip.
First, let me say that we loved the crew. Our waiter Serkan, sommelier Eren (sp?), assistant Tri (sp?), cocktail server Sharika (from Jamaica!) and maitre'd Sasha were all wonderful. They provided great input on the sights at the various islands, since many of them take advantage of their time off by going to all the best beaches and sights! They were truly invested in seeing that we enjoyed our trip.
Logistics getting on and off the ship were smooth. Doing all of your check-in online prior to the cruise is a must.
We had a balcony stateroom 7118. It was very quiet - there was no noise from the public areas on deck 10, the hallways were quiet. I think we were at a point where there wasn't a lot of foot traffic past the room. It was small, which is to be expected. I brought about 15 of my own hangers since they have the hangers that attach to a permanent ring on the closet rod. A pain to remove and replace. We were on the right (starboard) side. Sometimes we had a view of port, other times of another cruise ship at dock (which was pretty when leaving port). Our kids had inside staterooms 7054 & 7058 (adjoining) which were basically the same as ours without the balcony.
