The embarkation and disembarkation went very smoothly. We travelled with a big group and planned ahead for excursions and shows and dining and everything went smoothly. We were all very disappointed that our stay in St. Thomas was so short. We had to be back on the boat at 2PM which left very little time to sightsee and shop. I would not recommend this cruise simply for that reason. Dining was great; loved the freestyle dining! There were plenty of activities and shopping and entertainment on the boat itself. A number of us bought a weekly pass to the spa. The hydrotherapy and hot tub, heated lounge chairs, sauna and aromatherapy showers were amazing! You can get massages, facials, etc. also We used it every day and would highly recommend it. The fitness center had all the latest equipment and a great view of the sea along with classes and seminars. Loved it!
The cabin itself was nice but poorly designed. We had a number of problems with the cabin itself and reported each one. During the first few cool days we didn't realize the air conditioner was not working properly. Once we got further south and the weather was hot it hardly worked. We did report it and it was fixed but it still was not cool enough. The sink only had hot water. Reported and not fixed. The toilet did not always flush; reported and fixed the first time but we still had issues with it. The shower did not drain properly.
