Review summary

Great experience that I can't wait to do again. There is so much to do around the clock. The staff and crew are terrific. Whether you want to kick back and relax or keep it moving all day, this is the cruise for you.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
No complaints whatsoever! The staff was wonderful especially our wait staff Wayan and Alfredo, I swear they could read our minds and have what we wanted or needed before we said it. They even made our table's anniversary and birthday celebrations special. The Chef's table experience was also superb. It was held down in the galley (kitchen area). There you get a 7 course meal while seeing how this fast paced, behind the scenes operation works, that allows you to eat all the great meals offered on the ship. There isn't much room in the pools, they are a little small, but there are plenty of hot tubs. If you truly want to get away and not lift a finger, relax, and eat with no limits, this is a wonderful cruise to take.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food was good (you name it, they probably have it) and drinks plentiful.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Love the track on the upper level. Nothing like running/walking on a track, playing basketball, or working out on their equipment while overlooking the ocean.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Shows were good and music was always near. There is literally something for everyone's taste.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
They work VERY hard to make your vacation experience a great one.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It's a huge ship and easy to get lost or turned around, until you learn the layout.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Bathrooms are a little small, especially the shower area, but they serve their purpose.

Ship tip

Plan out your days, there's so much going on all day, it's easy to miss things or try and do too much.
