Review summary

The overall experience was pleasant especially because we booked several non-affiliated excursions. The ports are beautiful this time of year.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
We were told 11am and didn't board until after 12:30.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining rooms had solid B+ food but they were noisy especially when seated near the waiter stations where they were clanging dishes around during the entire meal.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
It was too cold for most of the outdoor activities. Indoor activities were mostly quiz or game shows.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The musicians and dancers were all very good. There were 3 different comedians all doing about the same kind of humor. Some variety in programing would have been better.

Children's Programs

No kids with us or even on the ahip

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward was terrific. Most of the waiters were good too...better in the Coral dining room than the Palm dining room and we could ever get into the Island dining room.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Clean and well maintained. Bit trying to do events in the Piazza area meant standing for the entire thing.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
It was clean and well maintained but tired in design with tired looking decor...only 2 usable outlets in the entire room.

Ship tip

Book non-affiliated excursions when possible...they are readily available and significantly less expensive.
