Sail Date: Apr 2015
Cabin: Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Balcony

Overall it was a great cruise! Service: Rodman and Deepak in the Anytime Dining were the best servers that we had ever had. (we have been on 9 cruises). They knew right away what pleased my picky husband and had fruit on his table the minute we would sit down. They truly were great!

Entertainment: The main shows were really good, the singers and dancers were better than the ones last year. (we did this same cruise last year)! We didn't' go to the first show with the aerial artists, but saw them on the going away show. Wished we had seen their full show on the first night, they were fantastic. Bored with the Magician. The first comedian was really funny, again, wished we had seen his show. The singers, dancers and bad were fantastic.

Starbucks. Amazingly the two guys remembered my husband from last year. As we were departing the ship they said good bye to him using his name…pretty impressive.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Oceanview Stateroom with Balcony

Cabin E2

Our Room Steward Damian (7th floor) was great, always had ice for us and kept the room clean. He always spoke with us as we were on our way to dinner and made sure that everything was okay in the room.

Port Reviews

Labadee

We LOVE Labadee, it is so relaxing to just get on a float and chill out. My only complaint is that we left too early, I could have spend a few more hours. It is a beautiful place.

Falmouth

We did not have an excursion, but got off of the ship and walked through the shops. Then we walked through the town and felt very uncomfortable and were hounded by people wanting to sell things. Not sure if it is a safe place, so did not stick around to find out. I did not want to have to drive an hour just to get to a beach. I really was disappointed with this port. The poverty is so sad.

Grand Cayman (Georgetown)

We have been to Grand Cayman several times so decided to stay on the ship and relax by the pool all day, it was nice and quiet! Last year we took a cab and went to 7 mile beach. Grand Cayman is a great port.

Cozumel

We went to a private beach club and it was wonderful. We have been to Cozumel many times, so did this and then shopped the shops around the port. We typically love to go downtown to buy silver jewely, we really love Cozumel.

Port Canaveral (Orlando)

We drove to the ship and got on, did not tour around. We have family in Florida so stayed with them. Getting on the ship was very easy, and also getting off. Kudos to the employees on the ground for that part.
