Review summary

For my friend, who is a first-time cruiser, this was the perfect opportunity to introduce him to the fun of cruising and all it has to offer. He is already looking forward to his next cruise.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Such a smooth, friendly process. We were guided every step of the way. No wait time.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Food was plentiful. Main dining service was impeccable. We wanted for nothing. The flavor of the food was a bit lacking and sometimes our food came out barely warm, but we were happy and satisfied.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We played ping-pong, mini-golf and enjoyed our strolls around the deck.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Comediene was just okay... performers were a bit over the top (cheesy; they really overkill it)...but all in all, it was a nice variety of entertainment.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Service staff were top-notch. Always willing to help in any way with a smile.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Well maintained!

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Cabin was small but expected it. There was some rust on the bottom of the right doorframe in the bathroom. Other than that, it was comfortable.

Ship tip

Make sure you know where you are assigned to dine. The first night we waited in a very long line for the wrong dining room. Then had to wait all over again when we finally found where we were supposed to be. That was a bit confusing.
