Review summary

This cruise was a nice 5 day, 4 night getaway. The weather was nice, the ship wasn't extremely full, the food was good, and the casino was tight. Overall, we had a good time.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
We had about an hour wait to board the ship, but it was a smooth process.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We went to the MDR for breakfast each morning. The staff were friendly, but seemed very rushed all of the time. My orders were always accurate and food was decent.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We mainly went to the casino and nothing else. I struggle with opening the app and trying to read the events so I really don't participate in much these days.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We loved our room steward Vicktor. He was so friendly and efficient. Loved Diana in the MDR and Jessica in the shops.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
It's an older ship, kind of dated but clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The room was a decent size and very clean. We had an obstructed balcony so we didn't really use it much.

Ship tip

Keep in mind it's a smaller and older ship with dated decor. However, it still gives a great cruise.

Ports of call

Catalina Island, California

5 out of 5

Ensenada, Mexico

4 out of 5
It was a $4 round trip ride to downtown Ensenada. We had to walk a few blocks to the main shopping area.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
We were shocked that the restaurant closed at 8am, so we ended up waiting longer to get off of the ship. It was somewhat organized. However, the line for the passengers with a passport was extremely long and those with a birth certificate walked right off of the ship.
