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.

Lido Marketplace

3 out of 5

Crowded and the food was only so-so.

Canal Grande Restaurant

4 out of 5

Service was a little slow. Things were sometimes cold or just warm instead of hot.

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.

Teatro Rosso

5 out of 5

The theater is cold, so bring a sweater. Show up early because the line starts forming about 45 minutes before the doors open.

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.

Ship tip

Show up early to the shows.
