Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room steward, I Made, was absolutely amazing! Always friendly and very efficient at servicing our room. Our waiter Kaycee and her helper were 2 of the most amazing people on the ship. Always cheerful, very pleasant, and very attentive, and always called us by name. Nevena at the Alchemy Bar served the absolute best drinks! She knew my order as she saw me walking up as she made the best drink!
