Review summary

We were very happy with our cruise experience overall and would likely do this as a trip again. We have been to a few resorts and really enjoyed that as well.

Embarkation

Because we are inexpierenced cruisers I was'nt fully aware of the help we could have accessed to get my husband onboard. He has walking difficulties due to neuro damage from broken back

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Because of my husbands disabilities we were thankful the room was fairly close to the main bank of elevators. The cabin was just the right size for us. The staff kept it very clean for us. Our bed was very comfortable as well as the pillows. Enjoyed good nights rest every night. Was glad that the fridge was empty for our use and not a pre-loaded fridge as I had been told by other cruisers

Ship tip

Be prepared for lots of fun! You can be as busy as you like to. Lots of walking also. Its a beautiful ship with very good staff and kept very clean. Try to avoid using the elevators at very busy times if possible. We had a half hour wait after the mustering drill after we got on board. I would have took the stairs but my husband has to take elevator
