Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
The food was hit and miss. Our waiter Kadek Alim was amazing! He should train your other waiters for the job! We had A child with special food allergies and he didn’t make her feel Like a burden as opposed to the other waters we had!

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
The pool was way too small. We never got a chance to get in it was always over population

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Some activities were fun. Love and marriage with Gabe was hilarious. The Steve white comedy show was extremely crass.

Service and Staff

2 out of 5
Steward was awesome. Waiter Kadek Alim was awesome. Other waiters we had were terrible.
