We sailed to the Caribbean for the weather. On the whole it was lovely weather. We chose Seabourn Odyssey for dates and itinerary.

Embarkation in Barbados was not well organized; there was not a SB Rep indicating that the line to board the port shuttles to the ship should be kept inside...it was raining and people were queuing outside, as per port reps. More than 50 people waited for the first shuttle to arrive. Once in the ship, registration was smooth and officers and crew were helpful. We received only a token juice upon arrival, no champagne, nor even prosecco. We would like to point out that the CD Chris was charming and it was a pleasure to hear him sing.

Our cabin, 825 in the pool deck, was adequate. What was shocking was a miniature TV set, which could not be properly seen from either the couch nor the bed, that also failed to work several times. The movie selection was good, but not adapted to the screen. Even though we do not cruise to watch TV, at times we watch movies between activities. The bathroom was adequate, great to have two sinks, but the shower stall was small to move around in. Our stewardess was very sweet, but we missed having a butler.

Port Reviews

St. Kitts (Port Zante)

The Carambola Beach BBQ and Champagne & Caviar in the Surf was excellent.

San Juan

Old San Juan is a jewel, even after the devastating effects of Hurricane Maria. We thoroughly enjoyed walking to all historic sites and talking to locals.
