We liked the islands that this cruise went to especially the Dominican Republic because we’ve never been there before. We were disappointed in the beach that we chose for our excursion. The sand was coarse and not the white powder sand I thought we’d find. The ship was larger than we usually like but got a lot of walking in from one end of the ship to the other. The casino was fun. The payouts were not big but we’re consistent throughout the cruise. The boarding process was the worst we’ve encountered. We had priority boarding but everyone stood in front of the doors when they opened and just went on board without waiting for their group number to be called. We loved the observation deck. Towels were available to place on the lounges so you could take your shoes off and lay out. Also the light lunch that was available and also the bar.
