Review summary

This was my first cruise so I have nothing to compare it to, but it was quite enjoyable. Our cruise director was funny and entertaining. All the staff was upbeat and caring. Everyone always remembered our names which was so nice. There was so much to do and so many great places to eat. Had a truly wonderful time!
