Review summary

We had fun! We plan to cruise to Alaska again, next year in late May to hopefully see more flowers, and check out different excursions. We want to do them all.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Excellent, easy! Heitana made it easy & always smiling as he gave instructions.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Good variety, good experience with excellent food servers. Adi, IGede, Muhammad, Basri great team, the best! Basri always spoke to us in the buffet area as did Wilfredo! IGede was so thoughtful in making sure one very picky guest we traveled with was always pleased and Hyisha is amazing! Absolutely lovely as well as professional. Nichole was also a lovely lady in the main dinning room. We noticed Salman & Janelle were always cleaning downstairs (music area-lobby) & smiling! Every time we went to either the jewelry store and general store, folks were helpful.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We enjoyed the shows each evening after dinner! They are Broadway quality! The individual music areas were entertaining! Thank you! Games were interesting although as many, never won :(.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
See above! Excellent shows - Broadway quality! Other music was good as well. We followed the singers, the couple (male and female team). Fit our taste better but enjoyed all of the variety of musicians.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
See 1st question As sad, Adi, IGede (excellent), Muhammad, Basri Team in main dinning room. EXCELLENT! Hyisha :lovely, problem solver, elegant, amazing! Excellent - you are fortunate have her. Nicole as well, Kind, always smiling. Please see first question for exceptional employees we noticed.

Ship Quality

“Fresh” the most thoughtful and helper! We knew the room was always clean because of his consciousness.

Cabin / Stateroom

Ship tip

Perhaps make excursions easier to depart boat: times, place. The steps departing the boat for sites we scary. I like solid plank better.

Disembarkation

Heitana made it easy with his kind with kind instructions and always smiling. He would make a good cruise director in my opinion. Problem solver, kind, people person He was kind and helpful especially with debarking. Outgoing and pleasant.

Guessing you’ll have to go on many Alaskan cruises to do all the excursions you want, but sure should give it a try
