Review summary

Great first cruise. Many options/activities to pick from rather you go with family or friends.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very quick and easy process. Workers very helpful in guiding you in the right direction to keep everything moving.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining room food was average, we ate there almost every night just for the great service and entertainment. Steakhouse was amazing, well worth the extra money you have to pay. Buffet was good for all day option.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Pools were small and crowded. Library was a nice space to play board games with the family. Too windy for mini golf. Serenity was a great place to layout and relax during the day for adults just wish it was a bigger space.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
DJ was awesome! Played clubby music to keep it fun.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The waiters in the dining room for breakfast and dinner were great and fun, they would remember us each time we came in. Room steward fulfilled all request. Room service staff was friendly.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
Ship was clean and we'll maintained, wish the design was a little more modern.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
