Review summary

Overall the cruise was well worth the time and expense. Staff was very accommodating, food was great. If flying out of Orlando after the cruise on a Sunday recommend you spend the night and fly on Monday. With all the cruise ships coming in on Sunday the airport was an absolute zoo. Flights completely fully and overbooked.

Nice venue except the seating with tall tables and chairs in a coat and tie atmosphere tends to make it like bar seating

Ship Quality

2 out of 5

All areas were kept extremely clean and mostly well maintained. Our balcony had been painted and there was paint over spray on the railing and on the glass. Ships design was for the most part great since the refurbishment into the Sunshine. BIG BIG faults were the pool areas. Adult pool capacity was 17 persons (Really!) and the Family pool capacity was 27. Who in the world thought that was a good idea, when you have 2000 plus passengers. Additionally the theater and the Punchliner Comedy Club was much too small to accommodate the number of potential passengers who would attend these venues
