Review summary

This cruise was so much fun! It’s a smaller ship than I’m used to but there are still options. I found out that our sailing was at 65-70% occupancy which was hard to believe because every pool chair and lido dining seat was always full. The comedy show was always full and so was the club. This was a perfect party cruise though. We stayed up until the morning and woke up a few hours later to do an activity or go to a port. The staff was friendly and helpful. Just note that guest services is no longer 24 hours. They close at 1 am so if you lose your key or need any other assistance it’ll take some time. Overall a great cruise close to home and budget friendly.

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
All the included food was good. There are aren’t a lot of options on the dinner menu like there used to be but it was all good. Shaq’s Big Chicken was good too. I really enjoyed the potato salad and pickles. Guy’s Burger is still solid. Great lunch option.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The interior cabin was small but we were hardly in the room.

Ship tip

Get to the comedy shows early. It fills up quickly.
