I did the same itinerary twice - it was cheap, quick and fun! I'm looking to explore bigger ships and longer itineraries but I'd definitely do this one on this ship again. Great value

This was my first big cruise ship. The positives were a ton to do on the ship, and lots of options for eating and drinking. The negative was the ship seemed empty at times. The pool and outdoor decks were deserted by 10 or 11 pm. You often had the sense that there were way fewer than 6500 people - which was good because you weren't constantly fighting crowds or lines, but you also didn't get that camaraderie you get with smaller ships. There weren't a lot of 20 somethings on this ship which is great if you want to cruise with your family (kids) or are super old. For someone who likes the party atmosphere, it was pretty subdued.

For a first cruise this was perfect. Water not too choppy, itinerary wasn't too long. Ship isn't an overwhelming size. Plenty of stuff to experience and everything was consistently good.
