Review summary
We took this cruise knowing the ports of call were not the main attraction. If you are looking for a big ship with loads of activities on it, then the Anthem is a good choice. The Royal Theatre, Music Hall, and Two70 Room offered a variety of entertainment/activities throughout the cruise. The two comedians they had were hilarious. The headliner show "Frankie and the Dreamers" was beyond entertaining. They were so good we stayed to watch the second performance. We Will Rock You was spectacular. It is about two hours, but we did not want it to end. The Windjammer was better than past cruises. The crew really worked hard to keep it clean. They were quick to clear and clean tables. We had no issues finding clean tables. The crew also improved the "washy, washy." All passengers had to wash their hands before entering the Windjammer...no more just using the hand sanitizer. The self serve buffet is back, but it seemed much cleaner than in the past. The Two70 Cafe, Promenade Cafe, and Sorrento's were good places to grab a snack. I don't have as much of an issue with the Main Dining room as others probably because my expectations were not as high. I understand trying to feed a ship with over 5,000 passengers is difficult. In the past, it has been our experience the smaller ships have better food in the main dining room. I would say the food was just O.K. Nothing great but nothing bad either. Our waiter, Anthony, and assistant waiter, Huu, did an an excellent job. They went above and beyond to make sure our experience in the main dining room was excellent. Port Canaveral and Nassau are terrible ports. If you want a cruise with wonderful ports, this cruise is not for you. We did not care about the ports on this cruise. We just wanted to get away since we have not been able to cruise during the pandemic. We got a good deal and live within 2 hours of Bayonne so we jumped on the chance to take this cruise. CocaCay seems to get better and better every time we go. It is so clean and beautiful...a great place to just relax! The buffet on CocoCay was our best lunch of the week by far.Embarkation
