Review summary

A great trip for a short time for vacation. You get to go somewhere special, and on a cruise, for part of your vacation week. We enjoyed the dining throughout the ship. Always enjoy the Red Frog beer. There is enough to do on the ship, though more offerings would always be good. Catalina is a good place to walk the water front. Also, it is fun to drive the golf carts around the town. The zip line offering is one of the longest in the world, so it is a good bet. The Blow Hole at Ensenada is one of only a few in the world, so it too is a good bet.

Embarkation

The renovated terminal is a great improvement. The check in was quick and easy. The waiting area was nice and comfortable for a waiting area.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The main dining room had delicious and a varied choice. Always an enjoyable meal. The Lido's food choice was good, but wish each side had one or two different offerings. The food was very good tasting. The Guy's Burger and Blue Iguana Cantina were both delicious with good variety. Of course the Sea Day Brunch was outstanding with a great variety for brunch.
