The Good: The food and the entertainment were all excellent. A nice variety of meals and every venue we dined at was equally good. Even the buffet was excellent. The entertainment was varied and top-notch, including two comedians and two different singers (these were the headliners). The cruise staff also gave two very good performances. The cruise director is to be commended for the good choice of entertainment.
The Bad: The embarkation could be handled much better. After standing in line to check in, we had to stand in line again to have our pictures taken for the ship's passenger pass. On other cruises, the ship's pass is given when you check in. Debarkation was okay.
The ship definitely needs to be refurbished. We noticed wear in the carpeting in several areas, but the worst thing was leakage in the two hallways, far aft on Emerald Deck. There was "water" leakage from the ceiling in both of these areas. We were told it was the cooling system but it smelled suspiciously like urine.
Grand Cayman is a grand spot for shoppers. Many different jewelry stores and brand-name shopping.
Easy to walk from the ship into town. Some shopping available but didn't do much else here.
We had a rental car that we dropped off at FLL through Alamo. Very easy to get from the airport to the cruise ship as Alamo provides a large shuttle bus.
