A wonderful time. I felt well cared for by the staff and crew. The massage in the lotus spa helped to relieve my shoulder pain. The food was excellent, as well as the entertainment.

Unbelievable! From laying the napkin in your lap, recommendations for dinner selection, to striving to meet any request.

Ship Quality

Took awhile to figure it out and then was very easy to get around

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Small, but comfortable beds. We spent very little time in our room, only to sleep.

Ship tip

Our ship did have some engine trouble. We were without power for several hours. I believe there was a problem prior to leaving. It should have been repaired before it went to sea. The captain did keep us well informed of what was going on.
