Review summary

Best was probably the entertainment. The big shows were excellent. Never seen so many great singers in one group of performers. The deck parties with MarQ were great fun. Travis was a very good musician and knew a lot of songs. Food was really excellent. Kudos to the captain and crew for dealing with the medical emergency the first day at sea without having to alter the itinerary. Maybe someday the casinos will be totally non-smoking.

Service was great. Second deck oceanview window was so dirty it was impossible to see much out of it. Also engine a bit noisy at times. Room cost should be be adjusted lower for this cabin and those like it.

Ship tip

Same advice we would give everyone on a cruise. DO STUFF! Your cabin's just a place to sleep.

I think there is more smoking gamblers than non smokers.

Wait they let you smoke on the boats? First I was getting a vacation from my pot smoking state of Colorado. Now cigarettes on a cruise. Good thing I'm not high standard and can deal with it. But that's a bummer.

I agree nhirschler.. captain did a great job with the emergency. Didn't even realize we stopped in the bahamas. Shows were great also just wish they did more on the lido deck esp with marQ who yes was a great CD
