Embarkation

3 out of 5
First time getting on a ship and goin through customs was crazy. I wish It was faster butttt

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Food was a bit slow getting to us so missed showed due to this. We had early dinning with a group of maybe 7 ppl

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We didn’t do many

Children's Programs

No children went with me

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The staff onboard was amazing. Everyone seemed to know u and that was crazy. To have someone other than ppl you sail with to be calling u by your name loud lol

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
All the areas were very well kept in my eyesight and then again it was my first time so everyone was jaw dropping to me

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Cabin stewards made sure everyone was ok and got everything we needed in great time no hold ups

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
We were off that ship just when I was getting comfortable with it. That’s the day I realized 5 day’s just wasn’t enough
