Review summary

Very nice cruise, but only 4 nights is too short...Would probably be better for 2 or 3 more nights....

Staff is excellent...Food is good...and there is lots to do...

I would have loved a little more time in both ports...Over night or late night departure would have been great...That would allow more time to explore the local scene.

Don't count on the slot machines to pay your expenses...They are a little tight...Play table games.

Be prepared to pay for all those extras....

I think at least one major headliner during the cruise would have been great, even if it costs a little.

You will hear the anchor being lowered and raised...Don't panic

Ship tip

Take part in the activities both on ship and off. Do things that you would not normally do and you will have a great time. The shore excursions were worth their cost.

Ports of call

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

Comfortable waiting during pre-launch

Catalina Island, California

Loved this port...very charming and peaceful

Ensenada, Mexico

3 out of 5
Another major port with both commercial and resort activity, but easy to navigate while on land.
