Review summary

I did get sea sick on day two of the cruise but all in all had a great time celebrating our 28th wedding anniversary. We found everything most relaxing and enjoyable. We prepaid for a couples massage and were charged again for it. I had to go to guest services and point out the mistake and get credited our account. It would have been difficult to get our nearly $400 back if I would not had noticed this while still on the ship but upon my return home. All in all great cruise!

Took forever to figure out where everything was on that huge ship. Couldn’t go anywhere without my husband but that was half the fun!

Cabin / Stateroom

It was perfect for us. Surprisingly spacious.

Ship tip

Scary when you first enter ship because you don’t know where anything is and you need a day or two to figure it out.
