Review summary

This was my second Cruise oh, and my husband's first. We celebrated our 30th anniversary and found it to be very very relaxing yet entertaining. Although it was family friendly and there were lots of kids on board we found it to be a fun trip and had many relaxing quiet private times.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Although I purchased faster to the fun I did not get my luggage for several hours have I missed the sail away party.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
I found the food to be great but I'm not a picky eater. My husband has celiac disease and his choices were limited.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
tons of activities. I enjoyed the ropes course as well as the bike ride and the track. Never got to use the fitness center although it looked great or play bingo. Too much to do too little time.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Entertainment was fabulous the stage shows were awesome the DJ was terrific and so are the comedy shows

Children's Programs

I do not have young children.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Service was excellent and the staff was tremendous! They always greeted us by name one of the cooks on the buffet bar knew exactly how my husband likes his eggs cooked after the first day of meeting him.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
They were always cleaning and the ship was nice and tidy. The only downside is walking through the smoke-filled casino on deck for the middle of the ship.
