Review summary

The boat was so overcrowded nothing could be enjoyed. It was impossible to get near the pools. The chairs were sat so closely together it was a challenge just to sit down. The soda package comes with a cup that must be used to get the drink, however there are few machines that you have to go a good distance to get to and they were often not working. The machine told me on several occasions I had to wait over 50 minutes for a refill, otherwise it would force me to wait ten. Because of the weather I was unable to do any of the "extras" on the boat such as the north star, the sky diving simulator, and rock climbing. The boat was so crowded I was unable to reschedule. Getting a drink at any of the bars could take upwards of a half hour. The food was so/so. Any time we went to one of the sit down places they pushed food that cost extra. When going out for an excursion I was given a hard time about asking for 2 bottles of water. The internet which I paid extra for was difficult. It would constantly disconnect and would have issues logging on. The staff was friendly, however often gave incorrect and inconsistent information.

I spent a majority of the time in the cabin. The virtual balcony helped it feel more open.
