Review summary

This was my first cruise. I did enjoy myself. Personally it was rather warm, and the free on board water seemed salty and made me feel dehydrated. The on board activities and entertainment are great. The dining is good, with plenty of options, would recommend seasoning salt. Mr. Wirat from housekeeping, Cousin Rell from entertainment and Stephan the Cruise Director are efficient at the jobs.
