Creator's Key Takeaways

If you enjoyed Icon, I definitely think you would enjoy Star. The staff was nice, the food was good.

I would not book a balcony that faces Surfside or Central Park. We did hear some noise at night.

I do think that the Aqua Show is better on Star than Icon's Aqua Show.

If you're considering Star, I don't think you will be disappointed.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Avoid booking balconies that face Surfside or Central Park if you are sensitive to noise at night.
