Always at least two soup selections were available. Service in the Windjammer was good. There was always someone asking if we needed anything.
The Grande

We had a 5:30 seating at the main dining room. The service was very good and the food was high quality for the most part. Nevertheless, the menu options could be improved.

Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
This trip was mainly for relaxation and as such we did not use everything that was available. Each morning we used the fitness center. The variety of gym equipment was adequate for our needs. We also used the solarium daily and the whirlpools. We enjoyed the openness and the glass roof enclosure that made the solarium a unique experience. My wife everyday visited the casino and enjoyed the gambling slot machines.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
There were three major show productions.
THE GIFT- this show was hard to understand but the singing and dancing was done well. Because the story was difficult to follow, I would not recommend it.
SPECTRA’S CABARET- was amazing. The dancing and the singing was superb and well executed. I very highly recommend this show.
WE WILL ROCK YOU- was superb. High energy with rock music and singing. The two main characters did a powerful vocal performance. This show has my high recommendation.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Service and staff did a superb job. No complaints in this department
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The focal point of the Ship’s layout was the central esplanade. Therefore it facilitated the main circulation and spatial organization. The ship was clean well maintained.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
State room 8102 was very spacious with a very large window. There was plenty of storage space and closets. The cabin was very clean.
