Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food was great. The ice machine was broke the entire trip and they had a bucket with a scoop. People would get ice and throw the scoop in, not sainitary.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

Water slides area shut down for 2 days! Right after we went over to use. Pool area stayed packed. They shut down hot tub area early one night. Never able to use any pools or hot tubs.
