Editorial Summary

The creators provide a review of the Margaritaville at Sea Islander, noting that while the vessel represents a significant improvement over the previous ship in the fleet, it still presents several drawbacks. Positive aspects of the experience include the staterooms, which are described as bright, spacious, and recently updated with improved bathrooms. The reviewers also enjoyed the variety of casual dining options, specifically highlighting the cheeseburgers, pizza, and Tex Mex breakfast and lunch selections. Entertainment received praise as well, with the production shows in the main theater exceeding expectations and live music providing constant atmosphere. However, the reviewers identified several negative elements. They noted that despite low initial fares, the cruise line utilizes various upcharges for dining and excludes items like specialty coffee from drink packages. Most significantly, the creators reported frequent maintenance issues throughout the ship, including roof leaks, flooded carpets, and broken furniture. They conclude that the vessel requires more attention and care before it is fully ready for prime time.
