Review summary

We enjoy the places that weren't Americanised as much better. Aruba was good. But we have enjoyed other places we have been better. But the cruise itself was great!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Tommy, head waiter and Sabour were awesome. You couldn't ask for any better people to wait on us. They were sensational and we even had six kids with us and our group was a group if fourteen at one table.

Sunset Dining Room

Sensational with Tommy and Sabour.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Activities were not as good as on the Dream. But Bradley was wonderful on the ropes course and every place you saw him. He made everything fun which otherwise might not have been. He is a wonderful addition and I could see him being a future cruise director he is that good. He's wonderful with all ages. And all programs. He can do any part of the ship.

Sportsquare

4 out of 5

Enjoyed the sports area. We liked the large foosball table and bean bag drop.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Loved the comedians and Steven. Jason Blanchard was the best. Comedy lounge needed to be bigger and you count see on the sides.

Children's Programs

1 out of 5

Our 15 year old was given alcohol from another teenager on the first night there. We did not allow him to go back. This made for a non relaxing vacation for us parents as we had to watch our kids continually.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Everyone was wonderful

Ship Quality

Not crazy about the design but the cleanliness was great. Staff send to work around the clock.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our cabin was always very clean. I wish we could put 10 stars. Henry did amazing and was very friendly. He always made sure we had everything we needed. We have been on several cruises with carnival and royal Caribbean and he was definately the best we have ever had. This was the first time we had ever gotten an inside cabin but we had no problem at all. With fourteen in our group we decided to go this way but we were very comfortable. Thanks to Henry.

Ship tip

Get in line early to the comedy shows and you can only watch one. You won't be able to go to the PG with your kids and then go to the R one because you won't get in. And the kids had to pick between the comedy and the main show they couldn't do both.
