Review summary

Great value for the money. Not as professional as higher priced cruises but a much lower cost. No issues with any of the staff, all were very friendly and professional.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

No issues

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Could be more/better activities on sea days. Dan doing trivia was delightfully funny.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Stage shows were high shcoolish. The comedians were mostly good (did not care for JC but otherwise very good). We do not do the R or explicit shows as that is not for us but some people said that they were funny.

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Every staff member that we encountered were very polite and professional in every way.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

The layout is very good. The areas were guests are were very well kept. However, the exterior of the outside windows were in desperate need of cleaning. The ship has signs of ageing, it may be due for refurbishing.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Typical small room which is fine for us as we only use the cabin for sleeping, changing and bathroom. A light was out and the shower leaked, we told the room steward and they were fixed immediately.

Ship tip

With an inside cabin being dark, at night we turn the TV to the front camera and mute it. That way when we get up we know if it is still night or morning.
