Sail Date: Oct 2005

We recently cruised on the Jewel of the Seas from Boston to Western Caribbean. Our first night we were disappointed to the size of our stateroom. I had requested a table for two for dinner and on the first night we were upset to find out that not only we were seated at a table for 10 but we were the only ones sitting there. We looked like to lost souls, to top it off we were sitting next to the kitchen. We were told to speak to the head waiter who really couldn't help up but put our names on a waiting list. After 3 days we got a call in our stateroom that we had a table for two but by then it was too late we had made other reservations to Portofino and Chops which by the way were the highlight of our trip. They were very eager to please and the food was out of this world..........5 stars to these two restaurants..........we ended up spending a few bucks for the reservations but it was well worth it.

The other disappointment was the ride, we hit choppy waters and my husband ended up getting sea sick for two days which ruined my vacation because he ended up in bed.................it seemed that the stabilizers were not being used ............we were on the 9th floor and the front of the ship so you can imagine we felt everything....................

The islands we visited were nice with the exception of St. Juan this stop was not necessary because not only did we waste our time going through customs but if you don't have an excursion planned the port is dirty and nothing to see.
