Review summary

It was an okay trip. I’ve cruised on smaller ships before, but this was my least favorite. The A/C on our room never got cold. There was only one outlet and it was up and down right above the counter so it was difficult to plug in a blow dryer (which weren’t supplied) or straightener with the boxy plug. No mini fridge meant our bottled water and pop stayed warm. The room was clean, but the ship was outdated. The shows were lacking. Dinner and breakfast was okay. Sea day brunch was disappointing. The new menu got rid of my favorite dishes. Getting on and off the ship was a breeze!

I stayed in an interior cabin. There was no hair dryer in the drawer. Must only be in balcony rooms or suites 🤷‍♀️ I did look.

Been on the Ship twice. All Balcony cabins have hair dryers built in. They are in the drawer hard wired, not sure how you missed it. It gets hot in June and July.

I’ve been on the new ones and older smaller ones, i usually prefer the smaller ones, but i prefer the paradise or ecstasy over the sensation personally. I wish they would make a new smaller ship. Less people. No lines. Easier to get a chair in serenity or lido. The new ones are great for longer cruises since there’s more to do, but for 5 days, i prefer the smaller ships.
