Service and Staff

5 out of 5
OH our room steward was FANTASTIC. Yehven was over and above what we expected, he anticipated our every need. The animal towel were great we looked forward each day to see what surprise he left out. WE NEVER HAD TO ASK FOR ANYTHING it was always just ready for us in the room. Yehven's personality was so pleasant and he made us feel like we were the only room that mattered and we felt so special.

Ship Quality

Everything was always clean and fresh. Always seen people cleaning even the seams in the ceiling was being cleaned while we were there.

Cabin / Stateroom

We were quite pleased with our cabin. The cabin was always clean and well stocked. We had 3 people in the room and it had plenty of room to move around and sleep comfortable.

Ship tip

Be ready to walk. The space between the events was quit a bit of walking. There is wheelchairs available if you need those.

Guessing first cruise? You apparently had a great experience. Hope all your future cruises are equally as pleasurable.
