Review summary

Paradise is fine for first time but a bit small for a 6day cruise. It was a pleasant and comfortable ship. For the most part the staff went out of there way to make you feel welcomed and accommodate your needs. They tried hard to make it a fun experience. I noticed, not much focus was given to seniors (activities).
