Review summary

We were looking for a reasonably priced trip that we could take during my Spring Break and enjoy some good weather and relax. That is exactly what we got from this cruise. Will definitely go again.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We arrived at our scheduled embarkation time and walked right up to be check in and security with NO wait. We walked right on to the cruise ship. Couldn't have been easier.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

The food was good. The presentation was great.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
There was always something happening on the ship. We enjoyed the bands throughout the ship. We had a couples massage that was excellent and relaxing.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The punchliner comedy club was GREAT. The shows in the Spectacular Lounge were OK...the same dancers every night just a new theme.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We had the best staff. The staff is AWESOME...they each call you by name. They were all extremely friendly and helpful. Our room steward Made was the best, always cheerful. Our rooms were kept immaculate. We asked for ice the first day and our ice bucket was always full of fresh ice for the rest of the cruise. Our dining room staff went above and beyond with their service and great attitude. Thanks to Andarwan, Richard and Anca for making the dining room a special occasion every night!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The cleanliness was a 5+. The entire ship was always immaculate. The design of the ship was a little awkward. I was still unable to navigate the ship on day 6.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The cabin was great. We loved that we were able to open our balcony and share with my sister and her husband next door. It made the balcony very enjoyable. The cabin was always immaculate!
