Review summary

This was a last minute getaway perfect for Relaxing

Embarkation

5 out of 5

We had faster to the fun and walked right on the ship. Quick and easy!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Everything was tasty and attractive. We got your time dining because we booked last minute- we didn’t care for that. We did have a 30 minute wait the first night, but after that no wait to 15 minutes or so.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We won 4 golden ships on a stick playing trivia, lost at bingo, and won in the casino. There was lots to do- but we were after relaxation and spent a lot of time sunning on the decks.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

We enjoyed the piano bar and the band playing outside the casino. The Epic Rock show was cheesy- but vocalists were great!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

One of the benefits of the smaller ship is the much more personal service and les crowded venues everywhere. Our waiters and room steward took great care of us.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Everything was clean and well kept. The layout was a little confusing because it is different than newer ships that we have sailed recently. The only thing I really missed from the newer ships was movies on the deck in the evenings.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Cabin was clean and well kept. Bed and linens were super comfy.
