Review summary

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We almost walked right on the ship, with no problems.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining room food was great and our server was outstanding, food in the buffet line would get cold by the time you got thru the line and could find a clean place to set, didn't go to specialty restaurants.

The Black Pearl Restaurant

5 out of 5

The food and service was great and our servers Maria Theresa, Putu Pranata and Henrilene made our dining experience the best, always remembering our names and even remembering that one of use had a Birthday, with a little cake and sang Happy Birthday.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The pools was full of kids most of the time ( this was over Spring Break ) the adult pool and spa was very full also, the outside movies was in the pool area so you could not hear the movie over the kids in the pool.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Most of the shows that we seen was satisfactory some better than others.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Ruben our Stateroom Stewart did a very good job keeping our room clean and making those little animals every day, and always called us by name every time he seen us in the room or in the hallway.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Most of the ship was clean, the Buffet area and tables could use a few more people cleaning the area and tables, so people getting food would have clean table to set at.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Stateroom was ok the bed is showing of needing to be replaced, sagging in the middle, the couch ( hide bed ) is very uncomfortable to sit on, there was paint drippings on our Balcony Chairs and on the floor.

Ports of call

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

5 out of 5
We got off the Ship and walked around the town by the harbor, had a drink or two at Cabo Wabo, and Senior Frogs 🐸, this was a nice port.

Mazatlan, Mexico

3 out of 5
We got off the Ship and walk around some of the shops at the port, didn't go into town.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

5 out of 5
This by far I thought was the best Port, we went on a excursion around town and to a Tequila tasting and lunch up in the mountains, was very good. 😊

Disembarkation

2 out of 5
Took way to long, missed our bus back to hotel, had to wait another hour and half for another one, I don't understand what was taking so long once we got to Customs we was moved right through.
