Review summary

We were blessed with decent weather and the crossover was pleasant. Not too much swells, but some windy days. Meals were inconsistent, but servers were very good.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Relatively painless. Our times were right on with what we expected. Our

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
We only used the main dining room, no specialty restaurants. We expected the buffet meals to not be hot, only warm. However, the dining room meals (appetizers and entrees) were not hot. Some menu selections were only fair, like the very thin strip steaks and overcooked fish.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Only sat at the pool, did not swim or use hot tubs.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Excellent cruise director and all performers. A great variety and excellent performances. Standing ovations were well deserved!

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Our waiter and Asst. waiter were very good and attentive. Our room steward did a nice job as well.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
I can't understand why the cruise line makes everyone walk through a smoking allowed casino and pool areas to get to theaters and other events. Smoking should be banned or at least contained and closed off.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Nothing special and the layout of the bed meant little clearance space. Sofa was worn. The fridge door was messed up. The ship decor needs a reno.

Ship tip

Bring your own books and games. Not much available in the library. Go to ALL the entertainment. It was excellent.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
We were scheduled for the last disembark time of 9 am, but it was closer to 11 am before our very large group was released to get our luggage. Very poor and not sure why this occurred. Then, hundreds of passengers vying for taxis, Uber, limos was chaotic.

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate your comment about having to walk through a smoke filled casino to get to different areas.
