Review summary

Had a blast and can't wait to sail again!!! The only thing we didn't like was waking up early in the morning on disembarkation day. That process is long and drawn out.

Embarkation

Easy breezy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The ship's main dining room was awesome. Our wait staff was the best. Carlos & his team took great care of us. Our whole group of 8 had any time dining, but we requested Carlos every night. He deserves a raise!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Carlos in the main dining room gave us great service. The room steward was awesome although I didn't have much communication with him, only hi & bye in the hall passing. Everyone on the ship were very friendly.

Disembarkation

1 out of 5

It seemed unorganized and it took way too long. It has to be a better way to get everyone off that ship. I also feel like the disembarkation should happen at a later time.

Unfortunately not too many options. The crew has to turn all the cabins around in about a 4-hour window getting ready for the next set of cruisers.
