Chose this Cruise because it was a theme cruise. The entertainment was fantastic!!! Communication was not good. Was surprised to learn when we boarded that it was not entirely all inclusive. You needed to purchase drink packages that we were not aware of and you could and should upgrade your dining. Food was very poor quality to say the least. Not one potato was edible, all were dry and hard. Toast and bagels at breakfast cold and hard as a rock. The desert all looked amazing until you tasted it. Tasted as though 1/2 the ingredients were left out! I actually lost 3 lbs. on my cruise!

Service was excellent. Our cabin was clean, however, the age of the ship was noticeable. We had one shore excursion in Grand Cayman. The van we were in was rear ended and half of the time we were on the side of the road waiting on the police and we missed two stops on the tour. No one from the cruise line even inquired if everyone was OK. I would, however, highly recommend the stingray excursion. This was my favorite thing in the 5 nights, 4 days, except for the bands.

Room was clean and service was excellent. Could definitely notice the age of the ship.
