Review summary

The ship was very nice and was big enough to contain many activities, but laid out in such a way that you could get from place to place relatively easily.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Entertainment

3 out of 5

There were quite a few activities; however, most were for either adults or children, very few for both children and adults to enjoy together.

Children's Programs

3 out of 5

There seemed to be a lot of activities for the younger kids, and they always seemed to be having a good time. The teen center appeared to be unsupervised (not good), where a lot of teenagers just hung out, listened to music and danced. When my 15-year-old went to check out one of the activities listed on the schedule for the teenagers, there was no staff there. Some of the teens just threw together some activities on their own. They had a good time though.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Our stateroom attendant was not very friendly or helpful. We rarely saw him on our five-day cruise.

Ship Quality

Very clean

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our balcony room was fairly large and roomy for two. I was surprised that there was not a refrigerator.

Ports of call

Halifax, Nova Scotia

Again, because we didn't do any excursions, it was pretty boring.

Don't Miss: Missed it.

Saint John, New Brunswick

We didn't do any excursions, because they were so expensive, but we did walk around on our own. There wasn't anything to see within walking distance though.
