Review summary

We really enjoyed ourselves. We wore our masks when we were inside in a group. It’s no big deal. I’ll cruise for Christmas again if I take my whole family.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food was just average. We certainly did not go hungry.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We enjoyed some time in the hot tub in the serenity area. Too bad there is only 1 and it’s so small. We participated in the ugly sweater contest. It could have been organized better as there were a lot of contestants. We caroled on the deck. Too bad we did not Carol around the ship.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
We really enjoyed the bands on the ship. We also loved the getaway island show in the phantom showroom. Jaya the bartender in the show juggled those bottles and glasses to our amazement.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
We missed the personal interaction with our room steward. However, he kept our room spotless. Our bartender Jaya in the lobby bar made our cruise. He gave us personal service, always had a suggestion and knew us by name and what we drank the first day. He deserves a promotion to teach others how to serve. Besides knowing how to make the perfect drink.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
We enjoyed the layout. It was easy to navigate.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
This is a forward balcony room. It was clean, had great storage and is just below the salon. Only 1 flight of stairs to the lido deck. We would choose this room again.

Ship tip

Use stairs when possible. The elevators get crowded.

Ports of call

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

4 out of 5
We’ve been to Long Beach many times and like the marina area very much.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

4 out of 5
We only wandered the marina area and did a ship sponsored whale watching excursion. The weather was perfect in the 80’s. The whale watching was amazing. We wished it could have lasted all day. Our lunch on the marina was great. You get a lot of food for the money. We will definitely go back for a week long vacation.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Easy and fast. You don’t need to show your passport going through customs as they are now using facial recognition. Making it even easier.
