Sail Date: Jan 2019
Cabin: Deluxe Ocean View with Verandah 2C

Not a good ship for sunbathers. Not enough lounge chairs and the ones they do have are packed so tightly together you have to climb onto them. People remove them to get a little space and stack them up, compounding the problem. Seams to be smokers all around the decks making people go away from the pool activity area in order to breathe freely. On this ship they took away a lot of deck space and the Corning Glass Works to put in two specialty restaurants and a grass area with several cabanas. Can't put a chair on the grass and they don't show movies until late at night. Cabin # 6157 was directly above the designated smoking area making our veranda useless as my wife has COPD. This ship is more suited to a Med. cruise. Smokers everywhere, will try to avoid this ship in the future. Waitstaff was awful most of the 14 nights. One night we had to ask the waiter if we can order after waiting 30 minutes, another we didn't get coffee or our tea until after we consumed our dessert and on other nights the table wasn't set and had to ask for silverware. I could write 150 words on our dining room experience. Bottom line: go to the buffet!

Cabin 2C

Don't book this cabin if you don't like smoke. Directly above designated smoking area.

Port Reviews

Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)

Embarkation was easy, debarkation was little slow, but it could have been the government shut down.

Antigua

Hasn't changed in 15 years except for prices in town.

St. Lucia

Just a beach day at the Royal St. Lucia.

Aruba

Snacks were not what I expected, sunset was a little disappointing, but only because of the clouds.

Curacao

Nice town to walk around in without being hounded by locals.

Barbados

The Boatyard, excellent value and close to ship.

Bonaire

Actual sailing ship. Guide came in the water with us and pointed out various coral and named the fish that were visible.
