Review summary

Overall we had the best time. We have already booked another one. However the Vista has been experiencing engine trouble so the times in port were significantly shorter. We still had alot of fun on our excursions but we didn't have time to shop in Port upon returning from the excursions. Hopefully we have more time on our next one.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

I felt like everything went extremely smoothly. I was a bit overwhelmed and nervous about having all of our documents in order, but it all went well.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Shirak was our lead server in the main dining room and was amazing and made our experience feel so special. She was so attentive. She made sure we tried new drinks and foods every night. Our room steward Ida Bagus was also amazing. He took great care of us and our room. The staff everywhere were amazing and work sooo hard to make everything run so smoothly. They deserve much more than I could give. A big thank you to all of them!

This was very chaotic. Not enough elevators. Everyone was just jammed up in the stairwells etc.
