Review summary

my favorite part was the waterslide.  

 

Breakfast buffet with a window seat was also nice.

 

The worst was so much and so loud amplified noise around the pool....the whole middle of deck 9.

 

It was bad enough that that deck 9 was always so noisy, but that noise (BOOM BOOM) at times carries all the way down and forward to my balcony...almost the front of deck 8!

 

Information about excursions was minimal....i wish I had waited until on board to decide excursions so I could get info from other travelers about best stuff to do.  Way too much time on other boats and buses, and it turns out there was no discount for booking early.

 

I wish I had paid more attention to what was available on the TV as far as boat activities.  I found out the last day that you show the dinner menu....so I could decide choices (dining room or buffet luck) before standing in line.  The phone app was pretty...expand on that.

 

More shore time would have been nice.  More info on the ports too

 

May is probably too HOT for this cruise.
