Review summary

Suggestions: include soda, bubbles is a rip off! For tea hour offer more than two choices of tea. Wifi is ridiculous! Very expensive and doesn't work very well! Reds in The Punchline needs to learn how to speak in a mike. I actually put my fingers in my ears he was so loud! You couldn't understand him. LOVE the app!!! Can you add 'where the ship is in the ocean' on the app?

Onboard Activities

Enjoyed the pool! Enjoyed the self help or pamper specials. I appreciate the sale persons but didn't feel pressured! Bingo cards should be cheaper. Only played once. Played trivia, that was fun! Loved DJ's on Lido deck and at half Moon Cay.

Very nice but wow it's expensive...I would have bought more if it was a little cheaper! Even $4. Less would make a huge difference!

Ship tip

Be prepared to walk! Figure out shows and dinner early in the trip. We missed a few because we didn't realize the first set of shows were for late diners. Dress up for dinner! It's fun. Plan to spend another 1000! Between photos, drinks, excursions, wifi...

Wow!! Leave early if you want to be close to ship. Plan to walk. Water was amazing! I wished I had my own snorkel gear. Kids loved the tubes they could rent. Lunch was delicious! Drinks were good but expensive
