The Lido market could have had more options, the ship’s main dining rooms, specialty restaurants were great, Bonsai and JiJis were the best.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Emma Emma Emma!! She is a shinning star cruise director, full of energy and kept everyone engaged. Our room steward Budi was excellent and friendly and always had a smile. The guys at the coffee shop were upbeat, funny and always smiling (Mocha Mark and Java Joe) I think.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Brand new ship, well fifth sailing! The ship is beautiful and big and very easy to get around. There are many things to do on board while out at sea. The staff kept everything clean and were friendly. We were surprised to see little mini laundry facilities to wash and dry clothes.

Cabin / Stateroom

The layout was great and the bed was very comfortable. Budi, kept the room fresh and clean and always had a smile and was willing to help if we needed anything.

Ship tip

Explore JiJi's, the food and staff are awesome. We waited till the last day, which was our mistake. Bonsai was also great and had great service

Ports of call

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

5 out of 5
No excursions here, but we spent 2 days looking around and trying some of the local food gems. Wide eyes open palms is great for breakfast and brunch.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

We just walked around the cruise port.

Mazatlan, Mexico

We stayed on the ship and just relaxed in the serenity area

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

5 out of 5
We rented a van and let the driver take us around to see some of the sites. Nice relaxing day, and the driver was very safety minded. We did sample and buy some Tequilera La Novena tequila!

Disembarkation
