Review summary

The fun and energy of the boat was great -- there was always something to do. The staff was pretty accommodating (nothing over-the-top or mind-blowing, but still very satisfactory). Our steward was great, the food was good (However, some nights were better than others, in terms of the timeliness and knowledge of the wait staff. I have a food allergy and that caused some problems a couple of the nights). The one thing I also could have done without was the during-dinnertime entertainment. Overall though, great cruise, great locations, we didn't do any of the paid excursions but still had a great time where we ported. Would do again!

Cabin / Stateroom

Loved having an oceanview, was spacious enough for five comfortably which was pretty amazing. Adrian John, our steward, was AMAZING. Made our trip. Was always so kind, accommodating, and went so far as to lend me a personal Bible when I forgot mine. He deserves a raise, or a gold star, or something of the sort.

Ship tip

Don't expect anything grandiose - if you're with kids and they want a big pool, don't go for this one. It's what one might expect being an older, cheaper cruise.
