Had an overall excellent time! My adult granddaughter and I enjoyed the experience of her first cruise and my third tremendously! Would love to spend more time on cruises with all my family

Great embarkation experience.. so many helpful people to tell you where to go although the sound system was not up to par!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Everything was so so! Nothing special! Except for the waiters! They were all wonderful and attentive! I was extremely irritated at how often there was no ice available at the buffets

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

The dance shows were amazing! Comedy was good ( didn't like the risqué after hours show) Jamie was an exceptional cruise director

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Excellent

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Sweca was the greatest room steward

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

The pool was over crowded and cold and hot tubs were inaccessible because of the number of people (mostly children) But everything was kept clean

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Size was small but clean & comfy

Ship tip

Take ice with you! I know u can't but there was never enough!!! See all the shows in the Normandy
