Cannot comment on the Eastern Caribbean itinerary as this 7-Night Eastern Caribbean cruise ended up going to Cozumel and Costa Maya due to the hurricane and subsequent last-minute itinerary change the week of. Even with that, outside of the confusion surrounding excursions and making reservations the first 2 days of the voyage (reservation system was down and excursions were slowly being added), cruise went fairly well.

Cabin was clean and cabin attendant was great. Deck 6 forward ended up seeming like a good location for a cabin given the proximity to spa cafe, which was visited daily (refreshment package). Area was very quiet, close to elevators and did not really experience much movement despite the rough seas at time.

Traditional dining experience was also equally pleasant with regards to service and an overall good experience with regards to the food. Personal desire though was that the process went much faster, as an almost two hour average for dinner seemed a bit much. Also went to the buffet a couple nights and were pleasantly surprised with the options, food quality and service. Looking back, would have desired to frequent buffet more nights. Read more
