Generally a good time BUT : too many people in walking groups made for a very uncomfortable experience. The abilities of the walkers and mismatched desires regarding history or shopping did not lessen the frustration. Also, the all-inclusive label is a myth as there are forever demands for extra money for excursions, tips and drinks. The staff did not cope with our back-to-back cruise well so we ended up in held in St. Thomas security on the first day of our second cruise. The introduction to ports of call were cursory and most of the port talks were a rehash of the descriptions of excursions found in the brochure. Staff were uniformly pleasant and helpful. Our cabin was very comfortable. The ship is beautiful. We don't much enjoy song and dance shows so only went to one: talented performers. The choice of movies was fair. Food is pretty good. I found the expresso machine for coffee because the breakfast coffee was bland. Making careful consideration about going again.
