Review summary

It was beautiful and luxurious. It was beautifully maintained--everything was spotless. We loved all of the artwork. The staterooms were very comfortable and more spacious than we were expecting.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Food was beautifully presented. Ambiance a bit on the loud side--a little hard to hear others at the table (in the Normandie dining room). Singing of the waiters was comical but wish "Happy Birthday" singers could've sung on pitch!

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The shows were really great, but some of the events were a little too late for us oldsters who need to get to bed a bit earlier.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Very impressed with service. Was definitely above and beyond expectations.

Enjoyed very much. Loved the towel animals.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

3 out of 5

We took a taxi tour of the island with a very interesting cab driver and felt we saw the "real" side of Nassau--from luxury to poverty. Sad to see how terribly poor many of the people are.

We enjoyed the Universal Studios--esp. since Loren worked in the film industry.
