Nice ship, nice staff, nice Spa, very nice cabin. The buffet food was very limited, boring and repetitive. The stage shows need increased funding to allow bigger, more spectacular productions.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
It was crowded, but went very smoothly and faster than expected.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
The food in the special restaurants was very good. Did not use the main dining room because we got bumped into Late Dining 3 days before we sailed and we don't ever eat that late. The food in the buffets was disappointing. The food was repetitive and mediocre. The size of the buffet was very small, and the selections were very limited compared to every other cruise we've been on.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
The activities around the Lido Deck pool were fun. The outdoor movies in the same location were very new and enjoyable. We enjoyed the mini golf course and the gym.
Entertainment
2 out of 5
We did not enjoy the stage shows. The stage itself was small, the nightly shows were low budget and average quality. The Country Road show was simply bad, with lots of people leaving early. Only the show FLICK was really enjoyable.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Our room stewards did a very good job and wee friendly. The Spa staff were also very friendly and enthusiastic. Some of the staff at various spots in the buffet area were confused and disorganized.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
The ship was not really upscale, but was well done. The size and layout were what we prefer.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
We were not in a Cove Balcony as you list us. We were in a Spa Balcony on the 12th deck. We truly enjoyed our location only steps from the Spa. The room was big enough to store all our stuff and get around easily. I was worried about the increased motion being so far forward and so high on the ship, but the motion was minimal and I never once felt queasy.
Ship tip
If the stage shows and the buffet are your primary reasons to cruise, then do not select the Breeze.
It went very fast, but there was a frustrating lack of communication in our waiting area. The PA system announcements could not be heard in the Theater and staff only came in occasionally and talked to only small groups of people, not to all of us. It should have been a lot, LOT better in terms of communication.
