Review summary

Great 1st cruise for 2 fam members , only 4-5 days. Fun time, about equal to a fly to all inclusive. Cool to slowly move thru ocean on a big restaurant, but offset by crowds & lines. Names like patron, goose were a pleasant surprise, for me 15 meant unlimited (I never exceeded 11). Would like to try Oasis class 7 day, after I save for it.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Cheers was awesome cause it's all top shelf liquor & big beers. Food in mdr was very good. No upper echelon seafood included, it's extra. I hoped for at least a Lil lobster, oysters or scallops. But shrimp every nite

Onboard Activities

Never made it to putt putt. We came to drink & relax. Slide was fun.

Entertainment

Most takes place after 8pm. We crashed.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Few bartenders & hibachi cooks did NOT want to be there. But 99% were fabulous. We felt communication was poor, in general. Like disembarking. Corporate could do much better. Didn't always get a daily newsletter. Never met "Nono", thought she was a recording.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
It was clean, but in a few cabin halls there is a sewage smell. I suspect there are leaking pipes due to age, & wasn't just a 1x toilet overflow. . It is decorated well & has a "titanic" feel in areas. Tried to lay out at starboard pool with roof retracted & soot/ashes were raining down from one of the stacks. That sucked. It's an older ship that runs 24/7/365 I get it. But sell it & buy new. Or keep the cash cow.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
6400. Enough space for 3. Better than I expected.

Ship tip

Mdr food was the best, don't miss a seating.

Clean, quick. Parking fees r a Lil steep

Nassau, Bahamas

4 out of 5
No excursion. Walked downtown. It's pretty, & has grown in 30 yrs.

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

4 out of 5
No excursion. Controlled straw market, meaning it's a gated park area. Good souvenirs.

Disembarkation
