Review summary

In all it was a good cruise. And it’s really got to be bad to have a bad cruise. It is so much fun and it’s a vacation. I love cruising and will continue to cruise. I just wish the food was better.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

The main dining hall food was not that great. Seaday brunch wasn’t terrible but the dinners were horrible. Guys burger is always amazing. Blue iguana Cantina soft tacos are awesome. The pizza was good. The Lido breakfast buffet was pretty crappy. The only good thing they had was bacon and toast. Eggs were soggy!! Ice cream is always good.

Disembarkation

It was very chaotic. We did the early disembark because we had to catch a plane home but I think most of the people on the ship did that because it was busy.
