Perfect since we never spend time there. Fold down beds for the kids worked great, folded up during day gave plenty of room. Cleaning gentleman was GREAT!

I loved that the Paradise was the first all non smoking ship years ago. And I’m so happy to hear they have activities for teens. So many times some packs of unsupervised teens would run amuck. My kids, now in their 20’s, matured along with how cruise lines dealt with children passengers.
