Viking did an excellent job of make the ship seem more intimate than it really is. There are several smaller areas you could go to relax and seem that that this was your private cruise. Especially enjoyed the Explorer Lounge area, which was never crowded. The good was excellent--loved seeing the open kitchen in the World Buffet. Also liked that you did not have to pay additional to dine at their two other upgraded restaurants. The service was excellent, both the cabin and food. There was nightly entertainment every night--even had some entertainment under the stars poolside. The ports we visited (Tortola, Guadeloupe, St. Lucia, St. Kitts, Antigua, St. Maarten, and St. Thomas) varied. Some of the included excursions were great, and some were just for people who wanted to shop. All in all I would go on another Viking Ocean Cruise since I prefer the smaller passenger size over the mega cruise ships.
Room was not too small and like having the veranda to use. The only thing I would want have like is having more drawer space--a few more drawers would have been great.
