Beautiful clean ship. Some areas (though enjoyable) should have been made larger to accommodate crowds, ie. lido deck area and main atrium bar, always crowded.

Review summary
We had a great time but i would not go on this ship again. It's too big, too many passengers and the crowds should be better managed. There is the Dr. Suess area for kids and also the lido deck pool, why are kids running around everywhere else w/ little supervision ? Could not get in the tides pool or hot tubs which were loaded w/ children. Why are pre-teens hanging around the atrium bar at 80s party late at night pushing adults out of their way to dance.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Guy's Burger Joint
I could only get burgers on Sea days since the line was continually never ending during any other times, clearly you could use another burger station however it was delicious.
Onboard Activities
Tides Pool and whirlpools
Sadly way too crowded, kids running wild, people saving chairs for people who never showed up the 2 hours i was there. Could not get in the hot tubs because of way too many children.
Serenity
Serenity area was very nice, though poorly planned out for a ship w/ this many people, could use more space and definitely a regular adult pool.
