I had an amazing and relaxing vacation that I needed after being away for two years. My recommendation is take a reviews (mine included) with a grain of salt. I had exactly the restful and relaxing vacation I was hoping for and my wife really enjoyed herself which is probably the most important thing for me. If you need anything ask someone because they went out of their way to make sure we had an enjoyable vacation. I will definitely be back when I can get another break in my work schedule. Also don’t be afraid to talk to other people. We had a lot of fun just talking with other cruise guests and the staff and made lots of new friends. Hope to meet more in the future.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Extremely smooth. We were on the ship having lunch in less than 20 minutes. We were on so fast we were constantly moving with no pausing in between
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Imade, Gusti, and Nikki were incredible. We had early time dining at 6 pm and they made every evening enjoyable and fast. We had another couple join us halfway through because they were not having the same experience with any time dining. Our meals were quick, very good and memorable. We ate most of our breakfast in the dining room but when we did eat at the buffet it was good but a little cold. Guy’s burgers were good as always as well as the pizza and the ice cream. I definitely wasn’t ever hungry. We loved the dinner with our servers so never used the speciality dining.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
TJ, Extreme, Brittany, and Judy are the ones I really remember but the whole fun squad was all over the place keeping the fun going. They worked so hard I wondered if they ever get any sleep. We didn’t have any children with us but heard it was very good. The shows were the same ones from our last cruise two years ago but the singers and dancers were so good we still went to every show. Marrissimo in the piano bar is exceptional and is an experience that should not be missed. The New Years Eve party was exceptional and I have never seen so many people in one place having such a good time in my life. It was an amazing experience.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
DJ was very good. Otherwise great time. I don’t remember some of it do to drinking a little in excess
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our staff as stated above was amazing and if you remove their gratuity you are just WRONG. They work extremely hard and always have a smile and a hello. There was not a dirty spot on the ship from the constant cleaning. There are lots behind the scenes that I didn’t see but all do everything in their power to give you the best vacation possible
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Always clean and easy to get around with a little effort to plan prior
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We had a balcony cabin on deck 8 in 8425. We love to sit out in the morning. It was more than enough room for my wife and I. Ade kept us furnished with plenty of ice and kept our room very clean. He was remarkable in attending to anything we needed
Ship tip
Relax. Your cruise can be as good or bad but most is up to you. We went on with an open mind and had an incredible time.
