Review summary

The weather did not cooperate on this trip. It was windy and rainy. That did not deter our enjoyment. There was still lots to do on the ship. I was sorry for the first time cruisers. They didn't realise that this was a very unusual trip. Usually it's smooth sailing all the wY to the Bahamas and while there.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

My husband and I are both handicapped. They had wheel chairs for us and got us on the ship in a timely manner.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We ate in the mdr most meals for dinner. We did lunch at JiJi and the Italian restaurant. The casino comped us JiJi Japanese restaurant one night. We found the food delicious and the service excellent. We really enjoyed breakfast in the Sunshine mdr.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We enjoyed bingo, trivia and gambling.

Children's Programs

No children with us.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The dining room staff was excellent. Edwardo kept our room so clean.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

The layout is awkward for large groups of people moving around. Having to go through the casino is not good. Why can't the ships figure out how to put in an exhaust system to pull the smoke outside? This is your #1 complaint, even by smokers.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

The bed and pillows were so comfortable. We have room to move around. Plenty of room for our clothes and stuff.
