Review summary

great cruise - loved the staff and the ports. we were a bit tired from all the excursions, but how could one ignore those ports of a lifetime! we had a slight problem with lounge chairs on the days at sea and wish that more could be provided, although i got help from a supervisor when chairs were abandoned more than 45 min. we also had a slight problem - on two occasions - with the air in our cabin. there was an odor similar to paint - and we complained to guest services who claimed nothing was going on. my husband is knowledgable in this field and he thought that there was painting going on near a vent.

we sailed on the "miracle" in november and were told that the ocean suite was identical to the jr. suite - it was smaller.

Ship tip

eat less at dinner as the desserts are fabulous. go to see marilyn at the odyssey lounge for great cocktails before dinner.
