Overall, I enjoyed this cruise. Kyndall Fire is awesome. I would cruise again with her if I could. Sadly she is leaving for another port soon. There were a lot of areas that were hot on this ship like hallways and buffet area. There were also a lot of leaking ceilings. I think this ship is going into dry dock soon so I know the issues will be addressed. There were a lot of quiet times on LIDO where no music was playing at all. There needs to be some type of music to keep people entertained. I would suggest wearing a mask on the cruise as it was packed.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Embarkation was a simple process using the Verifly. After initial check in we only needed our passports. The Platinum/Diamond guests had a separate line which I did not see until after the fact so I just stayed in the regular line which moved pretty fast.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
The food was as to be expected. I never ate in the main dining room for dinner only for sea day brunch. The buffet had a good variety of choices to choose from. Love the Deli as it was always packed. The ice cream machine as down a lot on this sailing
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
The water slides are always a must. I did not get a chance to visit the fitness center as I stayed out too late.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Kyndall Fire is the best cruise director I have EVER had on a cruise. The stage shows were awesome. The playlist casts did a great job and could sing really well. I like that multiple singers took the lead and it wasn't just 2 main singers. DJ Didi and Jago were great. Amine in the comedy club was always a joy.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
The service was slow at time but I knew this going on was not surprised. The bars shut down too early some days. I miss the bar in the casino.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
The ship was clean. There was some days where the plates were piling up in the hallways.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
I like the size of this cabin as it gives you more walk around room than a normal cabin. I was disappointed as Youtube reviews showed a couch in this room and now it has 2 chairs instead of a couch. I had connecting room 8416 and there was a stench in the room often. This room is in the aft and I did feel a little more movement than mid ship but it was not bothersome
Ship tip
Wear your mask. Myself along with several other hundred in my Facebook group all tested positive. The ship was packed and I would suggest wearing a mask.
Disembarkation was not a smooth process. We met in the dining room and the lady had us put our bags in one spot and sit in another spot. Well when they started to disembark we ended up at the back of the line because our bags were toward the front and the people were already lined up. They need to find a better process.
Loved your comment about the fitness center! Overall, I’m happy to be able to cruise, even with the issues than be on land. Glad you enjoyed. The vista is a big ship!
