Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

All the wait staff were very wonderful and attentive to our needs the whole time.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Nice variety of items, but watch the prices. You'll probably pay more than you would have to on land.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All the wait and service staff were wonderful.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

The ship was very clean, but it is showing its age.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Much bigger than expected. This was our first cruise, so wasn't sure what to expect. Only complaint is that there was only one electrical outlet for charging any kind of electronics.

Ship tip

Check your bags the night before debarkation. It might seem to take longer, but it was very easy and enjoyable.

Great port. Restaurants nearby like the Royal Scam and Chic Fil A were wonderful. You can tell they are all used to having visitors.
