Review summary

I don't recommend this cruise ship. I have been on several cruises and have never been 'bored' on the boat except for this one. More activities are needed as well as more pool space.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Main dining room - the food was good, but service was slow. Specialty restaurants - n/a. Buffet - over crowded, not enough food stations. By the time you got back to your table, your food was cold due to the overcrowding.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

mini golf - good. theater - good. comedian - not very good. game shows - good. hot tubs - good. pool - not enough pool areas, two small pools for 4000+ people
