Hi! I was a solo female traveler (revered by some, scorned by some).

I didn't stay at any hotels. The ship was clean and accommodations were enjoyable. I can't complain about anything - the staff was attentive, they knew my dietary restrictions and were able to accommodate them. My room was lovely. The experience was exactly what I needed. I had the time of my life. My only concern was that there wasn't any visible first aid kits and AED machines (I could have done without the smoking in the casino as well - but I never went there anyway).

I went on a themed cruise - I'm not sure if I could handle a cruise where there wasn't some structure - that's not to say I wouldn't try! The Dancing with the Stars theme was sublime!

Clean - comfortable bed. It was just me so I made the space work!

Just enough aquatic adventure at a leisurely pace! Ask for Captain stumpy and his crew!

Very unique!

San Juan

The rain forest lived up to its name that day! still well worth it. You really need a poncho and a set of dry clothes! Beautiful! Our outfitters were awesome!

St. Thomas

I originally signed up for a more strenuous zip - but there were some technical difficulties. The place we went had rockin' guides. great for experienced and beginner zippers. beautiful scenery - great zips. no complaints!
