Such an awesome time. The good far exceeded the bad! We had such a wonderful time. We will go on another cruise soon!
Embarkation
4 out of 5
I expected so much more for embarkation day. The ship was delayed which was no problem at all. We were even given a $15 credit to use at the local outside market. Still we had no problem. We were still excited to be going on our first cruise. The trouble began while we were getting picked up at the local outside market. We were told that the buses would pick us up at 3 pm. The buses were there on time. The issue was there was no organization. People were huddled around in circles with no apparent line formation whatsoever. Which again is fine, I thought... maybe when the cruise terminal workers arrive we will have some order. No such luck! When the terminal workers showed up they spoke to the crowd that was in the front people in the back could not hear any instructions. We played the telephone game to get word around. Secondly the workers just let people bombard the entrance to the bus. I expected the workers to herd the crowd into a nice line and show some sort of organization. There was even a few slight arguments with a couple of cruise passengers.

Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our steward was John would was great! We actually miss John! Such a kind person! Rueben in the Deli was great also! He always made sure I had an extra cookie! I visited him quite frequently.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Everything was kept tip top! Every morning when we went out for breakfast we saw the staff cleaning the hand rails, door knobs, etc. I would saw the only issue I had would be the strong cleaning solution smell we had on the shore days. But again, that wasn’t a big deal! At least I know they were cleaning.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We were surprised at the size of the cabin. It was just perfect for us. We only traveled with a carry on and it was perfect! The room was clean and John did an excellent job making sure we were taken care of!
Ship tip
If you want to see the sun rise make sure you get up to the top deck and go to the spa retreat side! You can enjoy the sun rise while swinging in a hammock. Also order room service, this was you will have a little treat while you watch the sun rise.
I'm so glad , you had a great cruise. Hope you book another one soon. We have two this spring. And looking into one many in the fall. Would like to do three a year if possible. I don't know why we love it so much, we just do.
