This was our 2nd time on Magic, but first time with all the 2.0 upgrades. Still a gorgeous ship. Highlights now are Dr E, the cruise director, and Playlist Production shows. Perfect in every way.

The ports were all good but maybe a bit short port times in St Thomas and Grand Turk make it difficult to do much exploring after an excursion.

We did the Steakhouse, which was excellent.

Cabin Review

Balcony

Cabin 8C

Nice balcony room right near the stairs and elevators.

Port Reviews

Port Canaveral (Orlando)

Crowded port area with 4 ships loading at same time.

Amber Cove (Puerto Plata)

Beautiful port but shopping area needs to be improved with more stores. Too generic. Also would be better with another restaurant.

San Juan

Beautiful old city, visited both forts and had lunch at a local restaurant.

Grand Turk

Snorkeling was okay, beach break for rays and conch demo was best.
