Review summary

Leaving was pretty smooth. We left because of what was said rough seas.it was pretty much from 2 cruises prior having engine problems and both previous cruises having the port time cascade. Ultimately we paid for it. Our time was cut down to 1.5 days because of storm system. The following trip was on time and got to spend all their days at Port. Ship was rocking pretty bad going in. Everyone was sea sick. At one point on second night there the ship made a loud boom at 3:44 am scaring and waking Everyone up

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Average buffett food. Specialty restaurants were above average for the ship but nothing I would do on land. Mediocre at best

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

People basically drank from sun up to sun down. Some folks had to be wheel chaired to their rooms

Entertainment

Nothing special.

Children's Programs

My 12 ( soon to be 13) absolutely hated the splash park and was not allowed in Entourage with her 14 year old brother

Service and Staff

2 out of 5

For the most part every staff member was attentive and nice. You could see that some staff was over it. One roulette dealer yelled at a gambler on the table because he was smoking and it went in her face. The whole table cashed out after that

Bermuda was beautiful. Stayed 1.5 days on what was supposed to be 4. We got a slap in the face with $100 on board ship credit per room. So 200 for the 6k I spent on reservation
