Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Smaller ships seem to have nicer and friendlier staff, this one was no exception. They all greeted and engaged my 1 year old every time they saw us.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

LOVED the ship. Very elegant feel, lots of wooden panels, art, etc.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

First cabin we had was right above the theater and you could hear the shows plain as day. Spoke to guest services and we were moved to another cabin further aft with no problems.

Ship tip

Stay way from cabins deck 7 forward unless you like hearing the nightly shows from your room.
