Review summary

My favorite part of Paradise cruise was the Serenity area for adults, even though it was to small. Also the gym was pretty good with many machines and equipment to workout. I didn't like any of the activities (only a few), empty night clubs, no food after 9:30pm (only pizza), pool to small, extra pay for lobster or steak, to many photographers, long lines for dinner, and staff not trained to stop any disturbare or fight. In the casino there was to many people smoking. I will not recommend this cruise to any body.

Food and Dining

We had to pay $20.00 extra for lobster and steak. First time a have to pay extra for in a cruise. We order a salad in the pizza área at 10:00 pm and we never got it.

Entertainment

No good and not enough entertainment for adults.

Service and Staff

1 out of 5

Staff is not trained to stop any disturbance or fight. Some servers were to agressive trying to bring us more drinks in a short period of time.

Cabin / Stateroom

Seriously? Comedy and shows go on until midnight as well as putt putt or bean bag toss etc. 11:30 to 1:30 a.m. a small food section is opened up near the ice cream machines, you can get flat iron steak on the menu every night included no extra charge, lobster is served on longer cruises, I have never waited over 15 min for dinner & anytime there was a disturbance security is there taking care of it. Sailed Paradise 3x already & it has some of the best food, love the aft. To each his own.
