Sail Date: Nov 2016

Reception at the San Juan airport looked like it was organized by the Keystone Cops. Passengers were sorted by airline. Delta passengers were looked after before those of us who arrived on United. There were not enough seats on our bus to accommodate all the United passengers but they sent the Delta bus out to the pier half empty anyway. We spent more than an hour waiting while they arranged ground transportation for us.

Once we got to the cruise terminal, embarkation was a breeze. Best experience I've ever had. Kudos for having enough staff to service everyone and get us aboard post haste.

Our stateroom was spacious and tastefully appointed. The on-board WiFi was excellent.

Cabin Review

Cabin DV1

Very comfortable accommodations. Excellent service from the cabin steward. Positioned strategically near elevators and the World Cafe dining room. Not exactly luxury but one of the nicest of our cruise experiences.

OK island orientation. Nice view from the mountaintop.

Guadeloupe

OK island orientation. Beautiful beach stop at the national park.

Barbados

Dry dock most interesting. Prince Harry being in town made for extra excitement.
