Sail Date: Dec 2019
Cabin: Deluxe Inside Stateroom

-Dining 3/5: We tried all four MDRs (dinner with Select Plus), Le Petit Chef (dinner), Raw on 5 (lunch), Fine Cut Steakhouse (dinner), Luminae (breakfast) and Oceanview Cafe (breakfast, lunch and 1x dinner). The food was great in all restaurants - see specifics below.

Cosmopolitan (pre-booked timeslot) and Tuscan (walk-in) were very good for being MDRs, quick and attentive service. My wife has gluten allergy, and was promptly recommended specific dishes in these MDRs. She was even offered to pre-order from the next day's menu to avoid allergens (which in turn meant that she could have her all-time favorite carbonara made as gluten-free in Tuscan).

Cyprus (pre-booked timeslot) was below average, clearly stressed/confused waiters, but at least they brought the correct food as ordered. We got a table literally next to the kitchen exit, meaning constant noise and cooks/waiters walking by all the time. No proactive offering to pre-order from the next day's menu, even though they were made aware of my wife's gluten allergy as the first thing.

Cabin Review

Deluxe Inside Stateroom

-Cabin 5/5: Our deluxe inside stateroom on deck 8 was fantastic. Comfortable, low-key colours all-round and kept in perfect condition by our stateroom attendant, Nazareth. We loved his towel animals every evening! The shower was spacious and there was plenty of storage space.

Port Reviews

San Juan

Great shopping area, and several cultural/historic spots within walking distance of the pier.

Tortola

Very dead island. A shopping block on the pier, but otherwise nothing to see in the area.

St. Maarten

Extreme Plane-Spotting at Maho Beach

Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)

Absolutely fantastic tour!
