Itinerary: Bermuda

This was our choice for our honeymoon. The ship was beautifully kept, food was very good & the staff was exceptionally courteous and professional. Our choice of destination (Bermuda) was gorgeous. One could not expect to get so much for the price of the cruise.

Carousel lounge -- played lots of jazz music. High society lounge was very nice also. Each had a different & interesting theme. My husband loved the pool. Never a problem getting a drink --- we did not go to the casino.

The Grand Gala Buffet was a sight to behold! We thought the food in the Carmen dining room was extremely good although the Windjammer was fair to good. Service was exceptional !! We loved the wait staff -- too bad u can't get that quality of service back here in the good ole US.

Cabin was cozy. If u did not have a window, I think that you would get claustrophobic. Closet space was lacking , shower was fine. The bed was very, very comfortable. We were right in the middle of the ship so not that much movement - yes it was a bit small but who spends that much time in the cabin?

The Wave Review Dancers were very well choreographed & the costumes very showy. Comedians were ok. Overall we'd give them 3 out of 5 stars.

Spent 1 day in St George --which was fine as there is not that much to do--the rest of the time in Hamilton --lots to see and do from there. The bell diving excursion is a must!

Our table mates were very nice and friendly -- however many of the other passengers seemed to forget there pleases, thank yous, excuse me's.
