Review summary

Menu was limited. There wasn't much for evening entertainment. No dancers or other acts. The buffet always had lots to choose from. Don't miss the breakfast buffet. The salad buffet was often lacking fresh tomatoes and cucumbers. Never had croutons. The jar was always empty. To go down the water slide you must be 44" tall.

Very large room with lots of sleeping accommodations. Bathroom was small and dated.

Ship tip

Be sure to visit the aquarium at Atlantis. It's free and so beautiful. Catch a taxi for $4 a person.

Sorry about the premature post... Anyway, I have the simple approach - I ask someone to check on getting some more. I know- crazy, huh? I'd rather let someone know and have the chance to take care of it rather than to be unhappy and fuss later about somethings small like no croutons...for pete's sake, posting a critique about no croutons...

Yeah not really sure where the no dancers comment comes from because anyone who has ever cruised knows that they all have singers/dancers in the shows. Now if you had said you didn't like the shows then that would simply be a matter of opinion. But to say they didn't have dancers or other acts makes that part a complete false statement.
