Review summary

Although we only did roughly half of the cruise I would do this itinerary again.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Very smooth and fast due to completing the Medallion registration process before the cruise

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The food in the main dining room was excellent as was the service. We tried Sabatini’s and enjoyed our meal although the wine I ordered was out of stock. The buffet was a little disappointing. The selection and variety was not as expected. The afternoon tea was wonderful.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

I enjoyed the fitness room but they only had 2 recumbent bikes and 2 exercise bikes and one of them was not working. We enjoyed the pools and hot tubs.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Overall the Entertainment was excellent. The production shows were great and the guest performers were also quite good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room steward was excellent, our waiters were for the most part quite good as well. The passenger service personnel were also very helpful and also compassionate. During the cruise I received word from home of a death in our family. We left the cruise in Barbados to fly home. The passenger services staff were incredibly helpful during this difficult time.

I found the ship to be very clean but I remember when the atrium was larger. I enjoyed that more.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

It was a little cramps but very comfortable.
