Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Most food in MDR was excellent. Windjammer did not have great lunches; however, breakfasts were great.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

We enjoyed the solarium. My only complaint is so many people using media without headphones or earbuds.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Production shows were poorly executed. Poor sound mixing and sophomores. Band Ceeta was very good as was Euphonic Five

Service and Staff

Ver good, friendly and upbeat.
