Review summary

Had a great time. First vacation and now I am ready again. The food, staff and room were excellent. The kids would run you over and we're running loose at all hours.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Main dining room was wonderful. Oliver was our waiter in the London dining room.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Activities were great. Leigh the cruise director was hilarious. They need an adult only pool and hot tub because when I got in the aft pool I kept getting kicked and hit by kids. The water slide was fun.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The band and dancers in the Rome auditorium did amazing shows.

Children's Programs

No kids

All the staff were friendly and very helpful.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Our room had dust all over the table and TV

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Size was fine. Bathroom size was good but the lights took quite a while to come on. Bal only was nice and the view was perfect.

Ship tip

Get the cheers package. If you drink mixed drinks, beer, soda, or specialty coffee then the cheers package is worth it. The tea that you get for free taste horrible and the lemonade taste weak. Easy

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

It is a very poor area. If u don't get an all inclusive then they charge you for every little thing. If you just want to go to the beach get an all inclusive because if you don't they charge you for chairs, umbrellas and every time you go to the bathroom.
