Review summary

I think this ship could have offered a lot more than it did. The have a beautiful venue called The 270 but they really do not put it to use with different shows. It is the same live show again and again.

The ship ran out of lemonade two days before the end of the show. Why and how could they run out of lemonade, the one drink that is free? And, of course, nothing was offered except water. 

There was not one dance party of the pool deck.

There was not one midnight buffet.

This is very disappointing as far as a big ship is concerned.

Noise above our head was awful - like metal chains being scraped across a metal floor. No one could tell me what the noise was and it went on all night long. Our cabin steward was awesome.

Ship tip

This itinerary needs to change. St Marteen is not very interesting and very annoying that you MUST pay to take a ferry to get anywhere. The Peurto Rico stop is a joke. Why stop if you leave at 1:00 in the afternoon? What a waste of time.

I think it works as a unique venue. I liked how it was dynamically changing all the time. Although, we saw the journey cover band in 270 and music Hall. Music Hall was a much better venue for thag show... For some things it was great. Its multipurpose so maybe it makes it just OK for things. Those back windows are amazing to look out though :)

I think Two70 is a weird layout for shows. So many obstacles blocking the view to the main floor...technologically wonderful..after that, not so much...imo
