Review summary

Glad to be cruising again. We had an awesome time.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Easy peasy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Wasn’t to thrilled about the food. Who calls baked breaded chicken wings buffalo wings? They were wet and soggy. Everything was way too salty. I think they are using salt instead of herbs and other seasonings to save money.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Didn’t go to any shows, you needed to get tickets. The other entertainment was the same stuff they do all the time but still kind of entertaining. Did enjoy watching Deal or no Deal. Was happy for one lady that wore 330.00. Kids activities were cute.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

I always have so much respect for the workers. They aim to please and work so hard. Our room steward was so attentive and sweet. I often told her don’t worry about turning down just leave fresh towels. So many good mornings and smiles.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Well maintained and clean!

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

The couch and closet placement was the weirdest I’ve seen yet. Literally 10 inches between the closet and the couch. The balcony was big and had loungers, chairs, and a small table. The fumes when at port were overwhelming. Not worth the extra money at all.

Ship tip

If you don’t have an excursion booked wait about an hour to exit the boat there will be no wait. Book paid restaurants early as possible. Get the spa pass.
