Review summary

The rooms were kept clean and the staff was courteous and friendly. Too much time at sea and not enough shore time. You have to pay for everything. Everything. Don't book during spring break. Don't book on spring forward daylight saving time. They took an hour from un on our last day, and woke us up an hour early the next morning; the day we returned. Evidently the staff did not reset the time when a wake up call was requested. This was confirmed by our breakfast guests.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
The dinners, four out of seven, were lousy. And I was looking forward to a nice pizza one afternoon. I waited in line and told the man I wanted a half of a pepperoni pizza. He went in the back and brought a half of pizza out and gave it to me. The first bite told me it was stale and cold. I took it back and waited in line again for another half of pizza that was freshly cooked. Disappointment.

Service and Staff

When I called the front desk to complain about the pizza, all I got was a "sorry, we'll tell his supervisor".

The cabin was fine. It was what we expected. The cleaning staff was great.

Ship tip

If all you like to do is drink and gamble this cruise is for you. If not, take another ship.

Too much at sea and not enough shore time? You booked the trip, so unless weather was an issue, you should've known your itinerary.

We are currently on 14 day cruise and we have more time on islands than sea by far. Crowd is much older, I'd say 60 is average age. This is ok as it is more relaxing and enjoyable to conversations with intellectual adults and move around the boat freely without the children pushing all the buttons on the elevator. The amount of days of cruise depends on the average age and time on boat.
