Review summary

Really nice cruise. Will do it again. Bermuda is beautiful. Legend is a great ship and has a stellar crew.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Dumped bags, went through security, checked in, sat for maybe 10 minutes in reception area, then got on. Took half hour. Excellent!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Serenity Adult-Only Retreat

4 out of 5

Great bar staff! Pool was nice. Great guitarist/singer, Jerry? Was playing one day. Kind of soft rock vibe. Another day there was a guy playing an amplified steel drum. I though my head would split open, not very serene.

Avalon Main Pool

5 out of 5

Nice pools on this ship. Only about 20 children on ship which made it very relaxing!

Entertainment

4 out of 5

I did not attend any shows but my wife went to one and said dancers and singers were good but the production was terrible. Musicians around the ship were fantastic!

Follies Main Lounge

5 out of 5

A beautiful theater. Comfortable seating.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5

There were maybe 20 kids on board. Great atmosphere. I guess they were in school or.... the kids programs were good and kept them away. Lol

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

This crew was efficient, and...so happy. Great job! I complemented many and they said "we have great supervisors " . So there ya go.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

One of the most beautiful ships I have ever been on! Really nice decor. Exterior shows some wear but is maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

John our steward was great and took care of everything we needed! Super clean and everything worked.

Ship tip

Great small ship. Use upper decks to transverse the ship. Less traffic.
