Review summary

We simply enjoyed everything! The lack of crowds was most shocking. We cannot say enough about this boat other than, A+++

Embarkation

5 out of 5
The fastest and easiest embarkation ever! The new terminal is beautiful and makes getting onboard simple and painless! We were on the boat in no time.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was delicious. The main dining hall was fantastic each night. The steakhouse was outstanding. The only disappointing food we had was at Cha-bang but I bet as the work through some issues, that will get better. The fresh creations salad bar in serenity was so simply yet amazing. Highly recommend!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Loved how much there was to do. With many options at all times it kept the crowds low as people were spread all over the boat.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Some hits. Some misses. But to be expected on a new ship. Comedy was outstanding along with the performers spread around at bars and such singing covers. The shows in Celebration Central just felt lacking. Color My World was a favorite of our group.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Every person we ran into was so helpful and friendly. It was one really happy ship. Truty at Javablue made my day everyday!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Hands down my new favorite ship. Never once did we feel crowded. So many loungers and seating all over. Each neighborhood had great charm and honestly we are looking to book right back on it.

Thank you for sharing! We’re excited leaving Jan22 and back May 20! After doing Mardi Gras we had to get on the newest! We don’t care for the large ships till we did this class and now it’s our favorite!😊
