Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Only ate in MDR for all meals. We want to sit and be served. Rarely went to buffet, except for ice cream.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Too cold for pool but enjoyed the ambiance of ship. Four stars because there was inside smoking area in one of the lounges we liked to sit.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

We had to leave one program because the sound was TOO LOUD & UNCOMFORTABLE to my ears. Loud sounds do not make the program any better. We left.

Yes it is nice when you don’t need to fly to get on the ship. We are doing a cruise out of San Diego for a get away and it is local for us that is why we picked the cruise.

We are from Florida and sail out of Fl for the convenience factor but wanted to see something different we have free tickets to Disneyland so why not take a cruise at the same time
