Review summary

The cruise was nice but I don’t think I will choose to go on the Horizon again due to a few employees who made me feel like they were annoyed with having to work and tell me I didn’t order what I had known I ordered. This happened a couple of times (at the comedy club) and they were not apologetic at all.

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
The food was great and so was the dining room staff (Benjamin and Paul were exceptional). The staff (with the exception or a few) at the bars were not!! They just seemed like they were annoyed and didn’t want to be there.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
I was on the spa deck so I enjoyed the mineral hot tub and steam rooms not to mention the stone recliners they have. The comedians on board were hilarious.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The comedy shows were awesome and I loved the show Soulbound too.

Children's Programs

No children

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The waiters were excellent (especially Benjamin and Paul). My room steward was excellent also and always made sure to ask how my day was. I did have several bar workers who acted rude and didn’t want to be bothered. I never had this happen on the last cruise I was on (The Vista).
