Review summary

There were 8 adults in our group and we all had a great time. We laughed about the stuff that wasn't great and made the most of what was available for entertainment. We we went to karaoke, piano bar, music show, two comedy shows and towel folding. We used swimming pool and hot tubs and sat near the bar area in the shade.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
It was fine didn't take to long. Staff wouldn't let my husband into the disabled line, so had to stand longer. He had his lanyard on that identifies as having hidden disabilities that he wears when flying.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Not great. We found food for our veggie/ fish diets. The food was not very hot and overcooked in the dining room

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We enjoyed the piano bar and the love marriage night with Johnny. We thought Johnny was very amusing and a nice guy. 8 in our group did not enjoy the comedy clubs, tried 3 different comedians and didn't find them funny.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The music show was ok.

Loved the waiter. Newbon our cabin attendant was great. He got our shower repaired quickly. Our room was well taken care of. He was friendly and pleasant.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Your staff did a good job keeping the ship clean and tidy.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The bed had a Crack in the middle that I kept falling in during the night. On other cruise lines they have connected the 2 mattresses so that doesn't happen. The room itself was clean and comfortable. A chair to sit on would have been nice addition.
