Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The pizza, guys burgers, chicken, and tacos were all good for fast food options. The food in the lido buffet was unappealing to me. Dining room fair. Did not experience the additional charge restaurants.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Pool was extremely crowded. Did not use any of the others.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
One band was good. Solo artist was emotionless. Only say one show about love. It was to lovely dovey for me.

Children's Programs

We had five kids with us but they did not want to participate in the kids clubs.

Service and Staff

Room steward was great. We had a joining rooms. He decorated the one room for my grandsons birthday. Bartenders paid allot of attention to the young guests but me being a grandma seemed invisible.

A 3 to 5 days cruise is always a hit or miss. Depending on what you ready wants to do. Try a longer cruise more enjoyable

Sorry your 3 day cruise wasn’t the best. Maybe try a 7 day if possible. Thank you for your review.

This 3 day out of LA is known for bachelor and bachelorette parties and spring breakers. Sorry..
