Review summary

It's our 11th cruise and it's hard to not have fun on a cruise - and we had a great time.

Positives 1) The layout of the ship is great 2) Our cabin attendant Robert was Excellent - we didn't even know he was there - unless we needed him 3) Dining service with Mario & Nana was very good - both efficient and attentive 4) Food was excellent.  5) Entertainment/shows were very good - Earl Turner was Excellent!

Negatives 1) Cruise Director & staff, while efficient were the least engaging of the 11 cruises I have been on - particularly Inara who appears completely disinterested on the two cruises we've had with her 2) Texas Hold-em tournament - 7 people signed up to play - a passenger sat down at the table and bullied the other six players into cancelling the tournament game and playing a cash game. Need to control your tables. 3)

Very good

Onboard Activities

As with any cruise - a lot of variety but the cruise director staff with the exception of Tino wasn't very engaging, so the Trivia and other games were not as much fun as they usually are
