Review summary
This was our honeymoon cruise and overall the experience was very good. Getting on and off the ship to start and end the cruise was very easy. I had been on this same cruise 13 years ago and this experience was much better than the first time. I do not recommend paying for the internet package because it really didn't work; major lag time or not working at all. Also, we bought the Bubbles package and I definitely don't think we drank $70 worth of soda. Overall, it was a very good experience!

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The main dining room experience was very good. On our first day we went to the buffet on the Lido deck and the food choices were few and the quality was not that good but from the second day all the way to the last day, the buffet on the Lido deck was much better. We also ate at the burger bar. At the time, the burgers were delicious but shortly after, both my husband and I felt a little sick because the burgers were kind of greasy. Still good though!
Onboard Activities

My husband and I played at the casino. That was a pleasant experience as we both won money! We also enjoyed playing bingo.

We didn't go to any shows.
Children's Programs
We didn't bring children with us.
Service and Staff

We really liked our dining room server, Dedan. He was very attentive, helpful and nice. He made our dining experience enjoyable.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Everything was well laid out and easy to navigate except for the very last day when we were getting ready to leave the ship. We were coming back from breakfast and were trying to return to our room and a door in the hallway we used all week was closed and we couldn't get to our room without having to go completely out of our way to get back to it. It was very confusing.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The room was perfect! We thought it was a good size and was always clean when we returned from wherever we went.
Ship tip
Don't buy the internet package. It was not worth it. It was VERY slow and only one device could be on at one time and even then, it didn't always work correctly.
Ensenada was fun! We did zip lining and it was very fun! We also went to the La Bufadora and shopping area. The zip lining was the best part of the whole trip.
