Wow!!! better than expected, We had a group of 20 and we traveled to Miami by motor coach, The lines to get on the ship were long but they moved quickly. Once aboard we were able to go directly to our stateroom if we wanted, or to the lido deck for lunch. We went to the cabin, on first look it was much bigger than expected with a huge picture window, the view was great!!!. The beds OMG!!! the beds best sleep I've had in a while whenever I did sleep. Our room Stewart Imade was the best he tended to our every need and always with a smile. After checking out the stateroom it was off to the lido deck for lunch, The food was great, hot dogs , nachos, hamburgers, grilled chicken and such but the onion rings were the best I have had and I ate my share. Overall the food was good and sometimes better than any All Inclusive vacation I've been on and I've been on a few. I don't drink alcohol and it's good I don't as I can see that's how they make a lot of money. We didn't do to many shows as I couldn't leave the casino where I won and kept $600.00, that made the cruise for me, my slot machine was the wheel of fortune. Overall the ship looked great it was clean and people were always wiping this painting that, My only suggestion is to do some work on the public bathrooms a little worn and not as clean as they could be. There is always something to do on this ship as a matter of fact we didn't do half the things we wanted to do, needed more time. When we got to the Bahamas they were offering a shore excursion to the Atlantis for $55.00 but my cabin mate and I decided to go on our own we took a taxi for $4.00 to the Atlantis walked through the hotel like we belong straight out to the pool area and the aquarium we toured the whole hotel went out to there beach and relaxed in the lounge chairs in the sun and enjoyed the beach for 4 hours with no problem mon!!! Then back to the ship for formal night, before I went on this cruise I thought who wants to dress up on vacation, but this was the highlight of the trip seeing everyone look so nice was really a nice touch. And my pictures came out great and that's the only other thing that bothered me a little they always want to take your picture, a few times is ok but it got to the point where I said no more please and they were ok and not to pushy if you said no thanks. Sailing back to Miami was great and it didn't bother me any that it rain half way back. The ship has so much to offer who would let a little rain ruin a good time. So just so you know I would sail the Fascination again!!!!
