The biggest reason to pick this cruise is the itinerary. It is really a good deal if you are doing back 2 back as it only repeats Barbados and has a port every day except 1. Also, there was no tendering, which made it convenient to get off and on. I was very disappointed in the nickle and diming. First time I've seen a cruise line charge for popcorn! The in room entertainment sucks. The problem is not so much that aside from CNN & ESPN, which are great, they repeat the same sitcoms/drama's over & over. That's right, a full week of the same episode! I know...you don't go on a cruise to watch TV in the room, but when you're getting ready in the room, it'd be nice to see different episodes of The Big Bang Theory.
I was pleasantly surprised at the dining in the MDR. Based on prior reviews I read I was prepared for bad, lukewarm food and slow service, but found just the opposite. Most meals were excellent and the food was served hot and quickly. We were at a table for 8, but only had 2 couples.
This ship is not for those looking for a lot of action in the evening. The main evening activity centers around the Centrum, which is a little tight for the crowds it attracts.
Disappointed in amenities...you get shower gel and hand soap...that's it. No lotion, shampoo or conditioner and no bathrobe. Bed was comfortable, balcony was spacious with clean furniture.
