Review summary

Cabin Stewards were great. Cabins way too small for 4 people even though there are 2 twins and king. Barely can move around. Cocktails were great! Food variety was good but lacked in taste. More activities should have been planned. Many rooms not used.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Good variety but lacked taste. Caesar salad was awful, burgers over cooked, seafood entrees were terrible. Stick to the steak and potato.

Onboard Activities

Needed more activities. Seemed many rooms were available to host activities but were simply not used.

Ship tip

For example: We didn't have trouble with motion sickness surprisingly but we choose to stay at the bottom of the ship. Now that we know it isn't a issue we will try for a suite next time. Oh, when you get a king size bed; realized that means 2 twins pushed together so you have a line down the bed.
