Whirlpool in the spa area was great. Pools were always very crowded, so I was not able to get in. I tried to come back early from my excursion to experience the pool. No luck.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I thought all the staff were absolutely amazing, very attentive, and had smiles. I did not encounter one staff member that I was not happy with. Putu Edy our stateroom attendant was simply amazing. He cleaned, he called us by our names all the time, asked us how are day was. I was impressed. Also, Woody was a fantastic Waiter in the Northshore restaurant. Unfortunately, I did not get his last name. Cruise Director-Frankie was also very good, lot's of good energy.

So glad you had a great time on your cruise. I’ll look for that room attendant since I’m on spa deck. Sorry about pool but that’s how it is on a lot of cruises. lol. Thanks for sharing your experience.
