Review summary

The best part of the cruise was the time to relax.The Bad side was the Dinning.The Waite staff in the dinning room was pretty bad as it took over 45 min.to get our food as it sat for over 20 min.and I had to ask if it was our food,As we were one of the first in the dinning room yet one of the last to served,it left A sour test and we did not return.Kind of spoiled that part of the trip.

If you have anytime dining your waitstaff is shared with the assigned time dinner guests when their waitstaff isn't serving their assigned 6pm and 8pm guests they are running in between to take orders from the anytime guests so even though its convenient we decided next time to get an assigned dinner time to have the same servers it's this way on all the ships

There was no relaxing on our Sunshine cruise. A ship that size wasn't made to hold that many people. We never had problems with the dining room but the buffet was not worth eating. The places that were good like the Blue Iguana Cantina closed at 3, Guy's closed at 6 & the Pasta Bar was only open til 3 or 3. The Deli was good so we lived off that if we didn't go to the MDR.
