Sail Date: Jan 2019
Cabin: Signature Suite with Verandah

Embarkation was slow and if you are booked in a signature suite with less than a 4 star mariner you will wait in a long line like everyone else. The signature suite is a great size and the walk in shower with jets was great along with double sinks. There is plenty of storage. We found the balcony was too small though for the amount of furniture. The food in dining room was fair and service was lacking. We decided to eat at the Lido deck every night where the crew were friendly and you didn't have to wait so long just to receive the meal. Pool area was nice but the pool seemed small. Music was too loud at the pool playing really bad music if you sit in the upper deck area. Dutch cafe on deck 3 was great. Shore excursion desk crew were not knowledgeable about any of their shore excursions so don't go to them for suggestions. They will even add airport transfers on your account without asking. Check your account carefully.

Port Reviews

Grand Cayman (Georgetown)

We used to LOVE Grand Cayman. The island was one of many that didn't have people in your face trying to sell you something. Nope that has changed and it is getting to be the same as Cozumel Mexico. Very sad.
