Review summary

This was our first experience leaving from Bayport and thankfully, our last! The boarding process was line after line, as an elite and suite passenger, not something expected. The food on board was below par and the stateroom furniture was stained. Many crew members seemed tired and rightfully so, as they were at the end of their tours. Of course, overall, the crew was exceptional, friendly and warm as they typically are. This ship for sure needs some TLC and updating!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

Dining Room selections were not very good and taste/quality was less than subpar. A premium wine list should be offered so we don't have to take wines that are of better quality on board.
