Review summary

It was a wonderful cruise despite the tropical storm conditions throughout the entire cruise due to the great sailing by the Captain. Our waiter, Michael, was outstanding in taking care of us during meals and a Birthday celebration. Our Room Steward, Kwong, prepared our cabin beautifully and left amazing towel characters. The bartenders were amazing in quickly providing wonderful drinks to us despite the large amount of customers. The entire crew/staff was very welcoming and obliging in satisfying our needs. Austin Morris, the Cruise Director, was very energetic, well-organized, and provided great entertainment.
