Review summary

The cruise was fun, the destination was the best part. Ship is dated so look for a newer ship if possible.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

We had Faster to the Fun so it was quick and easy

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

The Steak House was amazing and if you dine there the first evening you get 1/2 of bottles of wine and they have a great wine list. Rest of the food was just OK.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Splendor is an older ship so the pools were smaller, lounge chairs a little warn, and hot tubs were small. The Spa was OK, windows you really couldn't see out of so you didn't get a good view even though you were facing the sea.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Music was good, shows were fun, comedians were funny. We really liked this aspect.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5

Kids club was great, my sons had an awesome time and really enjoyed themselves.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room attendant, Adi, was great!!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

The ship is a little old and the windows needed some cleaning as you could not see out of them to well.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

When you book, definitely get a Cloud 9 Spa room, you get free access to the thermal pool which was amazing!! The Cabin is big, spacious and the balcony is a good size
