We boarded in New York, there were 3 of us. We had priority boarding so we never got our Embarkation Photo. We were taken right to Cagneys for lunch. It was a little delayed due to an inspection but the crew especially Marjorie was fantastic. It was worth the wait. During the cruise we had meals in Magenta, Blue Lagoon, Outdoor Café, Grand Pacific, Cagneys , Teppanyaki, and Great Outdoors. All food was excellent and prepared to your liking. The servers in the Grand Pacific (especially Josylyn) were more attentive than those in Magenta. Servers in specialty restaurants were all superb. We had the advantage to eat breakfast at Cagneys each morning, this saved us from searching for a seat in buffet. Buffet food was always excellent, but got cold while we looked for a table. We loved the BBQ lunch each day on the pool deck. I was surprised at dinner there were not servers continuously asking us if we wanted drinks from the bar (and that was fine with us).

Our room steward was awesome, We were in Suite 11024. Our concierge and butler Zahid and Carlos were great too.

Our ports of call were fun, we went to SeaWorld, Nassau (walked and shopped), and Great Stirrip Cay.
