Review summary

The 12-day getaway was long enough to relax and forget why you needed the trip in the first place.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Flawless - NO waiting or sitting around - appointment system works!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The main dining room was good, with NO problems or menu issues. Nick & Norahs' Steakhouse was also great with NO issues as on three prior cruises. The drinks were good and not watered down at all.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The Serenity Deck was the most used area for the cruise and was an excellent place to relax and enjoy the sun.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The stage shows were a not-to-miss event, and they were all great. Entertainment in other locations had duets and musicians, including a trio of violin musicians.

Children's Programs

NO kids with us

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The room steward Emerson, was always attentive and kept our room spotless and stocked. We never had to ask him for anything.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
We like the older, smaller ships, but the Miracle is going in for drydocking next spring for a well-deserved sprucing up to a great ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Great size with plenty of room and comfortable and also quiet!

The old pier far from town, and local transportation was just satisfactory, with everyone laid back and not too helpful.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
The visual ID system worked fine for both the ship and customs. NO waiting !
