Review summary

Being with my family and enjoying the fun.   The ship was beautiful and the food was great.  Better food than Royal Caribbean.   The cruise director was awesome.   He was so active and fun.   The ship was clean and the staff was friendly.  The captain was not personable.

The cabin itself was beautiful. But it was right over bean bag toss at a bar. Often noisy. I dont think when one pays for a suite they should be disturbed most of the day with bean bags hitting wood. That was disappointing.

Ship tip

If in the middle of the ship, don't book level 6 or 7. Bean bags at bar very noisy.

explore the ship, and then after the muster drill (approximately 5:00 pm) head to the sail away party on deck 10. Don't miss the shows at the theater right at the very front of the ship. also try a guy's burger
