Wanted a longer cruise that left from New York. We enjoyed the city on both sides of the cruise. We left NYC and headed into the big snow storm. Captain and crew did great job keeping us informed and safe.

We had booked this cruise long before the hurricane's forced changes to our itinerary. We were delighted with our ports of call. St Lucia was the most amazing. St Croix remains in need of recovery but if felt good to shop there and bring money into the economy.

Ship is a great size. Found the speciality dining superior to MDR overall. For us the buffet was lackluster, and crowded. O'Sheehan's is convenient but food is a mixed bag. Found it and buffet OK for a late snack but better choices like MDR for breakfast or lunch. Orchid Garden was sub-par and sushi roll was pedestrian at best. Go to Cagney's for a filet if you can. Le Bistro was my favorite but I ate far too much and felt like a slug... So worth it. Read more
