Review summary

We had a nice time and enjoyed seeing Penquins and the lovely views of icebergs and glaciers.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
It was a mess. We reported at the time assigned, but there were long lines, no bathrooms, no water or other refreshments, and no one to tell us what we were supposed to do.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We loved our dinners at Murano, and Tuscan Grill. Our food and service at our regular assigned table in Moonlight dining room was exceptional! Chester and Akash quickly learned and anticipated our preferences. The buffet at Ocean view cafe was overcrowded without enough places to sit and people bumping in to each other, so we did not go back.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We enjoyed the lectures by naturalists and scientists. We really liked the shows by the ship’s talented dancers, singers and acrobats. We also loved the solarium with its indoor pool.

Entertainment

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our room steward Carla, was great. She helped us stay organized and neat.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship is extremely clean. There are bad seats in the theatre where you cannot see the stage. The shops were not laid out that great.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was small, but with nice storage. We were comfortable, and our cabin was quiet and convenient.

Ship tip

Be prepared for long lines getting on and off the ship.

A great guide Vincente took us around the city, with several stops. We wished we could stay longer, the performance we saw by the carnaval group was amazing.

Disembarkation

Our luggage did not arrive where we were told to wait. It was totally disorganized. No bathrooms, no where to sit while we waited. When I asked a celebrity employee for advice , he said it’s a nightmare.
