Review summary

This was our first cruise, celebrating my 70th Birthday. I was hindered by a fractured pelvic bone for which I was still recouping. Therefore walking was difficult and painful. We didn't get to partake in all the activities because of my condition. We did however enjoy the ones we were able to attend. We met some very nice people and were impressed by how friendly and attentive the entire staff was. We found that all we had to do was ask and we received the help we needed. We will most likely schedule another cruise later when we can fully enjoy all parts of the cruise.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

If I could put 10 stars I would for our Stateroom Steward Ireneo and Buana our Team Headwaiter along with Sheilia, Team Waitress and Yohanes Asst. Team Waiter. They all contributed to making our first cruise most enjoyable.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Too much walking to find our way around at first. A+ for cleanliness.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Cabin was fine for size and the cleanliness was excellent thanks to our Room Steward Ireneo, however I was unable to sleep in the bed because it was tooooo soft. Had to sleep on the couch while my husband slept in the bed.

Ship tip

Early dining is advised because of evening show start times.
