Review summary

We traveled with 10 people including older and younger family members. We enjoyed our time with family very much and this was a good boat for that! As a couple, we will definitely look for a different type of cruise, one that is more geared toward adults.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

easy, organized, and fun!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

i was surprised at how great the food was! Loved the burgers, tacos, and dinner each night in Sapphire!!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

My husband and i loved the adult activities- Love and Marriage, the adult Scavenger hunt, and the gender game; we didn't care for Bingo- honestly, the hostess was not very fun. :(

Entertainment

3 out of 5

We only saw one show and it was fine. Loved singing along but the production was lacking some...

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All staff members were great. Loved meeting people from all over the world!!

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

We were really surprised at how small the pools were, which was very disappointing. We also had to ask to have the deck area cleaned one morning (pieces of shrimp all over) and the pools got pretty dirty each day (hair). However, we found it easy to get around.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

We were happy with our cabin, although it was a little tight. We will likely go for a suite next time...
