Review summary

Embarkation: we were at port and onboard within 15 minutes....... we have been on this ship in the past so were comfortable with the choices which would be available. Purpose was to relax after the stress of re-building after hurricane and we did just that.

Embarkation

onboard with no issues at all

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food was good but not as varied as in the past. It seems that the CL has reduced cruise members (or they are having the same staffing issues as everyone else) Everyone was attentive but a little pushed to the limits.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
trivia, spa

Entertainment

5 out of 5

it would have been nice to have a chair in the room and as an older ship, she did show her age a little. But the steward was excellent and we were comfortable.'
