The best thing about this cruise was getting off!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
The food wasn't very good. Most cruises buffets are open 24 hours. Not this cruise. The buffet was closed two or three hours twice a day, so you basically had to eat on their schedule. Never entered the dining room.

The room was nice but freezing

Ship tip

Don't go. Take a Celebrity Cruise instead. Their cruises are wonderful and the food is excellent

Bought a nice bag, but total tourist town. Nothing really to see, just shops. The shore excursion I chose and prepaid for was cancelled on my anniversary

Ensenada, Mexico

2 out of 5
Not much to see and did not want to eat or drink

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Best thing about the trip was getting off and even that was disorganized. It was announced that we would disembark by floors beginning at a certain time and the cruise director would make announcements. That did not happen so we were on the ship 45 minutes to an hour later than we wanted.

Wow, I also got sick on the last night if cruise. I agree with you in regards the food, one night I spend it in the bathroom. I can’t recommend this cruise at all.
