Review summary
The staff were all wonderful but the ship is a very old one. I was very disappointed with the food choices for my particular taste but fortunately it was only four days. I was also disappointed with the activities that were offered. It is a good cruise ship for families with children who don’t want to spend a lot of money.
Embarkation

Perfect
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
2 out of 5
Not many choices for those that are plant based or vegan... the buffet was almost non existant. The main dining room was beautiful and the service was excellent, our server was Putu from Bali and he definitely gets a 10 star rating!
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
If you have children I guess there is a lot to do but not many interesting activities for my taste.

Ship Quality
2 out of 5
This is a very very very old ship and smelled horribly when we first got on... common areas were clean and well-maintained .
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
The walls are paper thin and you could hear the people next-door as clear as day… This room has an adjoining room door to it. There were so many children on the ship and at midnight or 1 AM they were still running up and down the halls yelling and screaming and made it very hard to sleep . However, the room was very clean and the beds are very very comfortable .
Ship tip
If you were traveling with children this would probably be a good ship but in my opinion for adults I would not cruise on this ship... you definitely get what you pay for .
We did the excursion to La Bufadora which was totally worth the 45 minute bus ride to get there. However the shopping experience while we were there was disappointing… The vendors kept hassling you every step you took and it was hard to shop.
