Review summary

We enjoyed this cruise and all the shipboard activities. The trivia games were great and we met some very nice people while playing.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Embarkation was a bit of a mess but once through the check in process we were on the ship quickly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

For the most part the food was good. A few issues with things not being served at the correct temps.

Seafood Shack

2 out of 5

Don’t waste your time. Food not good and it took over half an hour to get our order and the most of what we ordered was cold.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

The casino really needs a better filtration system to handle all the cigarette smoke, you can smell it all over the 4th deck.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

All the production shows were very good, but most of the comedians were not worth sitting through.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

All the crew were friendly. Service was good but sometimes a little slow.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Great layout and very clean. The ship is well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

This is an accessible cabin at the very front of the ship. It is very large with a picture window and plenty of storage. Our cabin was very clean and well maintained.
