Review summary

The ship was dressed beautifully for Christmas. The staff was so pleasant from the moment we got on the ship. The ship is easy to navigate and easy to learn. It is great that it has a large serenity deck, as well as, two amazing slides for the kids.  Only downside is the pool area does not have a separate area to dance or watch the fun things they do. It is hard to see the events they perform. Shows were good, but I thought there should have been at least one more. Comedy shows were good as well and I liked that they changed after two days. But did not like that one day they did not have anything.  Overall the food was better on this ship. Nothing was great, but good.

This was a longer cruise and we got less service in the cabin. I did not like that at all.

I have a few pre-Christmas cruises and always like the decorations. All else understandable except 'dance at the pool'. I guess I am getting old as I never thought of doing that.
