Review summary

Had a great time but 5 days was too short. Loved leaving from Charleston as that meant we didn't need to fly.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

1st time from this port. Very easy and smooth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Not a buffet fan but main dining room, steak house, Guy's Burger and pizza were great!

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

No pool games that's we saw and missed those. Serenity Pool was awesome, especially with all the kids on board.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

They were ok. Missed the big production shows from other cruise lines.

Children's Programs

No kids.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Staff was great! Really loved the Main Dining Room entertainment. Bar tenders in the Frog Pub were so fun!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Very clean. Nice ship but smaller than we've ever experienced.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Clean, comfortable but a bit tight. Missed having a working plug-in in the bathroom but made it work. Not much counter space in bathroom but shower pressure was great!

Ship tip

1st time written cabin at the back of the ship and loved it. Quick access to the Frog Bar.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5

Quiet location. Also our 1st time being allowed to bring our wine on board. Loved that but be sure to put in carry-on and declare at embarkation. Had friends who packed in main luggage and it was confiscated and not returned.
