Smaller, older ship that is a great time for first-time cruisers. The food, staff and drinks are always top notch. Wish the shows had higher production value. They also don’t provide as much as they did 10 years ago. A lot of nickel and dime costs that you didn’t use to have to pay for.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
Very slow and not enough communication. Covid testing and protocols are a hassle.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
As usual, the food and drinks were top notch. The steakhouse was a major highlight. Blue Iguana and deli were surprisingly good. We try to avoid buffets, so never tried them. The main dining room was alway interesting. The staff really make the vacation special. Late night pizza is a long wait. Highly recommend the Alchemy Bar for unique drinks created specifically to your preferred tastes.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Pools were often overcrowded and drinks are constantly pushed on you wherever you go. The comedy club was fun.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The DJs were pretty good but limited in variety. The shows were good, but would have liked to see better production. Sets were limited to projection screens and rotating platforms.
Children's Programs
4 out of 5
Daughter loved the staff, but there were very few kids during our sailing.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Staff were always amazing. Our room steward was amazing, Asti learned everyone’s name immediately and was always courteous and helpful.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
The ship is starting to show its age. It was frustrating when they would block off some of the elevators and prevent people from dispersing more quickly.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Cabin was cramped and the shower didn’t seem to work properly. We could only get hot water when someone flushed the toilet.
