My son and I enjoyed this cruise and its offerings. Our cabin was a basic interior room but was great for us. Our room attendant was so nice and helpful. She keep our room clean and was always pleasant. We loved the nice dark room which was great for sleeping in. We also enjoyed the daily first run movies. We had everything we needed and were cozy and comfortable.

The food was plentiful and overall tasty. We LOVED Guys burgers....just as good as any restaurant burger on land! The pizza was above average and the buffet was fine. Room service was average but convenient. The main dining room was amazing. The food was very good but the service and fun made it GREAT! Hendri was our waiter and he provided the best service and most fun of any of the 4 prior cruises I have enjoyed. Dessert was always the same...you can't beat the melting chocolate cake Mickey Mouse Style (with two ice creams). My biggest tip..ask for it Mickey Mouse style...you won't be sorry.

If you are smart you will avoid some common traps and save yourself some cash. I don't begrudge any of the cruise lines making money but it gets old with all of their gimmicks to over charge you. Drinks are outrageous so thankfully I don't drink. The excursions are good but you can do the same thing on your own safely and with the same activities if you do them yourself. You will save 40 to 65% doing your own excursions. Get out away from the port by a few feet and there will be locals hawking the same trips with big savings. I also dislike the way they make you parade through their duty free over priced stores at every port before getting out. Also the private island is super nice but they gouge you for extras...20 bucks to rent snorkel equipment that you could buy for 25 bucks and own forever!
