The food was great. We tried different things every night. Guy's Burgers were fantastic and so was the Blue Iguana taco and burrito bar. The desserts on the buffet were very good and the ice cream Swans were very good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

I can't say enough about the staff. Laurie, our room steward, was the best. He took great care of us. Wait staff and cleaning staff were great. The Fun Squad made the trip so much fun. They always had smiles, friendly and very entertaining!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

The Ecstasy is an older ship but very clean. They did some painting on port days and we always saw someone cleaning...

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

The beds were the most comfortable bed I ever slept on. Cabin was always clean. It was small but a lot of closet space.
