Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Annie and Sydney were amazing, we will miss them. Food in dining room each night was delicious, we didn't do any specialty restaurants, my 13 and 17 year old really looked forward to our dinners in the dining room each night.

Onboard Activities

Never a dull moment!

Solarium

5 out of 5

Loved this option! We hung out at the sports pool on main deck 15 and loved all the entertainment but this was a nice option for a quieter time, loved the hot tubs on each side!

Vitality at Sea Spa

2 out of 5

Waited 30 minutes for appointment, I had a pedicure, save your money and time on this.

Swim with dolphins, it was more about cramming people in to get a picture with a dolphin so you can buy a really expensive picture.
