Review summary

The best part of this Cruise was we got engaged!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Not the ships fault but do to weather it was a cold and rough cruise, only three days at pool. Went to Casino a few times but I am asthmatic with allergies and started having symptoms of sore throat and headaches from the smoke (sadly our room was upstairs from the casino) so getting away from it was impossible unless we went outside and it was actually cold out so that too was limited. . I don’t understand why smokers can’t have an outside designated area on the outside decks on the 5th floor! These smokers were sitting at slots but not playing and got they’d get pissed if you ask them to get up so you could play! That cost the Casino quite a lot I’d say!

Entertainment

Service and Staff

We were in Ocean view balcony 6385 and our room stewards were AMAZING!!

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
Location was great getting to areas, room was always clean but unfortunately we were above the casino area and could smell the cigarette smoke constantly. I’m asthmatic and it caused me to keep the balcony door open all the time! Kept wondering why the smokers couldn’t go outside on the decks!

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was good it was the cigarette smell that wasn’t.

Ship tip

Stay out of the Casino because smokers were taking the seats but not playing! If you have allergies get rooms as far away as possible from Casino because smoke is horrible!

We were in a group of 15 and all had the same excursion planned but the night before they changed most of us to different locations and actually cancelled one of our friends. We were not happy at all. We were going to Pearl Harbor

Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

Disembarkation

Other than being ran over by all the wheelchairs, motorized handicap cars and people bringing 6-7 bags off and dropping it every few seconds it was ok
