Review summary

It was great for big groups. The staff was phenomenal and was very attentive to all of our needs. There was one person in our group who was disabled and they were very accommodating. We traveled with 5 kids ages 11-15 and all of them had plenty to keep them busy! The food was outstanding and bountiful!!! Would recommend.

Not much to do here. The excursion we went on was very poorly organized and not of good use of time or money. (tubing down the rivier)

Tell the dining staff well ahead of time which time you prefer to eat and that you have a large group. Make sure all of your group wants to eat together and at the same time. We chose a specific night to dine together so staff could accommodate us. Otherwise we all ate at our own leisure. We cruised the Dream. Wonderful staff.

Did your group sit together in the dining room? We have 20 in our group.
