Review summary

Loved the ship. Shows were exciting. I enjoyed watching two movies that I hadn't had time to watch before the cruise. It felt like being at a drive in without the car. Different things to do outside. The food was good no matter where you ate. I loved the ice cream shop. Lots of shopping, if you want that. Boardwalk was so nice. I enjoyed the way it was set up. I absolutely would do it again. Loved the ship. Excursions were nice, but not necessary.

We enjoyed the main dining room. When we wanted burgers and Mexican food, they had excellent restaurants.

Onboard Activities

We enjoyed watching the surf flowing ramp. We loved playing miniature golf. We didn't get around to playing pong. Maybe next time.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Love, loved the shows. Ice skating; diving into the pool; the comedian; every show was top notched.

We didn't have any children with us. It looked very kid friendly.

We also would like to know what the movie line up looks like. We usually like to spend one night relaxing and watch a movie.

What movies did they show? We'll be on her in a couple weeks and didn't want to spend money at the movies if they're going to be showing a good movie on board.
