Review summary

Just Okay, staff was friendly, efficient, and just great. Experience of cruise was disappointing! Shows were cancelled and replacements not up to par. Excursions were POOR -- ours got cancelled the evening before we were to do it and no replacement available as anything we wanted to do was sold out. Overall I would NOT cruise again.

Wouldn't know because all shows cancelled due to cast illness and substitute 'shows' were not quite up to par and very disappointing

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Staff was very efficient, courteous, and very helpful. Gladys especially was a delight to see each day with a kind word and quick prompt service. Gladys did an great job! All dining staff were pleasant and efficient, did a fantastic job and kept area clean and neat while being super friendly. Staff was the highlight of the cruise!

Ship Quality

All common areas were clean and well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Cabin was clean and well kept , bed was spacious and comfortable, A/C worked great, plenty of storage, free safe was a big plus! only criticism is that we only had 1 electrical outlet in whole room.

Ship tip

First timers should take motion sick pills or patch before leave port, ship moves more than you think

Ports of call

Just Okay-- did not really enjoy because our Offshore Excursion was cancelled the evening before so we had to scramble first thing next morning to try and get another one But all other excursions of similar type were sold out, very disappointing -- did not enjoy.
