Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Giving this a 3 star only because of the buffet. Bars and main dinning room I give a 5 star rating. The buffet food was often cold. The wok and omelet days were an exception to this. They were terrific. Made to order.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Cloud 9 Spa is fantastic. Punchliner comedy club simply a great time either PG or 18+. Ship activities were all great.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

All good. Piano bar not my favorite. Theatre shows. Some 3+. Others a 5+.

Children's Programs

I did not travel with children.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Everything was nice. Cabins big enough. Balcony was great and we were on level 2.

Ship tip

My biggest top would be read details. We were not aware that they charge your account towards the end for tips to all staff. Also we checked our account the night before to make sure all the charges had gone through so we could exit early for a Miami escursion. Only to find out Sun am that we had to get out Line because there was problem with our CC on file. My Cc co said they had no problem with the balance and they would not run it through unless we used a different card.
