Review summary

This was a great cruise with an attentive and inviting Crew! The Cruise Director Donkey was GREAT! The food both free and specialty were very good. I had such an amazing time I didn't want to Disembark!

Embarkation

5 out of 5

The embarkation was delayed for an hour, but ran very smoothly once we arrived. The baggage area was a little chaotic.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

I enjoyed the Spa Therapy jacuzzi and heated tables immensely. The 80's Party, Sail Away Party and Love & Marriage Show were all great. The live performances definitely need some fine tuning on some of the singing portions, but overall it was pretty good.

Service and Staff

The service was great. My only complaint is the MDR service was slow on Elegant night.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Secluded Cloud 9 Cabin with private balcony. It was fine for 2 people. I don't see how more people could comfortably fit.

Ship tip

Watch the youtube video on how to use the Elevators. Avoid them on embarking day. This is an amazing ship you'll LOVE IT!

Ji Ji's Asian Kitchen was delicious and worth every penny!

Sea Day Brunch was good! The Skillet Cake and Corned Beef Hash were really good.

Cucina Del Capitano was GREAT! It was so nice we had to do it twice. Chicken Parm and Short Rib was delicious!

Try to take the stairs for the first day until the evening when they release the elevators (from delivering bags). You'll be less frustrated that way.

How can we avoid using elevators on embarkation day? How would we get to our cabin?

Appreciate your feedback. I agree that once you understand the elevator system, it’s not an issue. Glad you mostly enjoyed your cruise.
