Review summary

It was so much better than expected; the staff was wonderful. From the guy at the Java Place to the bartenders. Every staff member was awesome. The food was amazing! I just wish there was an express elevator to the spa floors. The only negative was the wait.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
It was very easy and organized.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The steakhouse was easily one of my top 10 meals ever; worth every penny. The drinks were amazing. We did brunch at sea twice and each time was fantastic> We dined 3 nights in the dining room and loved the food and staff. We ate at Guy's and loved it, The Iguna had the best breakfast burrito ever.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
I was impressed by the spa amenities offered. The steward was attentive and always greeted us by name in passing. The bed was comfy and the cleanliness was awesome.

Ship tip

Stay on the Spa desks and walk outside to the Lido! It is a great view and beats the elevator wait.

Great time. Not crowded. A little chilly on sea days. Blue lagoon was great!
