Review summary

For a first time cruise I was blown away! Staff is very kind and hardworking wanting to ensure you are having an amazing time. The only tip I would share that I was unaware of until I arrived was gratuity is add on EVERY purchase you make plus an additional gratuity for each night you stay that includes the steward, dining crew, and another service I can’t remember. That was a bummer but oh well I know next time. Still had an amazing time.. really don’t need to leave the ship it was literally soooo much fun. Movies on the deck, shopping, free food at certain areas, nice drink specials, live music an amazing MC, competitions - I would definitely cruise on this ship again.

The only fitness class I wanted to go to was canceled due to staff member hurting himself while jet skiing that day. Disappointed no one else could step in

Your smart, it took me till cruise #2 to notice I was double tipping. They already added $1.40 to the $8.00 drink, I would tip bartender another $1 or $2 per drink😂😂😂 Though it was worth it.

Yes, they add on gratuities for any drinks you order at the bar,etc. And for the daily services of the staff. Shouldn't be any for items purchased in the stores except maybe tax.
