We were looking for a Christmas vacation without any of us having to cook or plan events. This was definately the best family Christmas week for the 20 of us!! Our group ages ranged from 5-85 yrs old and every one of us had a fantastic time!

Embarking was a breeze. We had checked in prior to boarding so the process was quite seamless. The ship itself is beautiful! We were just in awe of the size. Our 10 cabins were closely situated on the 7th level that was actually a very convenient location. We mostly walked to the different floors as it was great excercise and faster than the elevators. Impressed on how quiet the cabins were even though there would be alot going on in the main areas of the ship.

Best way to communicate is with Post It notes. Just stick them to the doors to let your party know where you are or change of plans, etc. We brought walkie talkies but didn't end up using them as the channels would connect with strangers. The doors are metal so you may bring anything magnetic to decorate your door to make it more distinctive.

Cabin Review

Large Interior Stateroom

Cabin L

It was a standard room but more than sufficient space. Plenty of shelving and draws for clothes and shoes. Would not opt for anything bigger for future.

Port Reviews

Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)

We didn't tour this city as we had very little time between our landing at the airport and embarking onto the ship.

Nassau

As it was Christmas day there were very little store open on Dec 25th. We took a walk to the nearest beach and relaxed for a few hours there. The ship also docked for only 5 hours.

San Juan

San Juan was beautiful considering it was hit by Maria 3 months prior. We took a lovely walk to the nearest Fort and enjoyed the scenary, weather and surrounding.
