I really struggled with booking this cruise because of the negative reviews - I'm so glad I went with my gut! We had a great time from the moment we boarded the ship at 11:30 am. Embarkation was a breeze and before we knew it we were eating burgers on the Lido Deck. There were 8 of us, 4 adults and 4 teenagers - we had three rooms - 2 ocean view and one interior on the Main Deck (2nd floor). Our rooms were ready by 1:30 and our luggage arrived by 3:00 pm. We had a great room steward (imagine putting up with 4 teenagers - 3 of them boys), always with a smile! We were in room 2429 aft - it was a very busy area but was a great location to get to our dining room and the Lido deck. We had Great servers in the Platinum dining room - Aye, Emmanuel, Marlon and Youman (Youngman to us). Their hard work and friendliness went above and beyond every night!

I thought the food choices were great every night and the food was very good. They didn't care if we ordered one of everything on the menu, they just wrote it down and brought it to us with a smile. Of course we also ate at the buffet for breakfast (which was excellent), fresh eggs cooked to your liking, fresh omeletes and fruit, ate burgers at Guys for lunch and we snacked on pizza most nights - all very good! The crew were always friendly and courteous - they went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. We went to st. Marten, San Juan, and Grand Turk - each stop was wonderful and easy.

I honestly cannot think of one negative thing to say except it was over too quickly! I loved every minute of it; all 8 of us did!
