Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main dining room food was great the first three nights then looking at the menu for the rest of the cruise didn’t have anything appealing so we went to a specialty restaurant (murano), didn’t care for the appetizers but the entrees and dessert were amazing. Ocean view cafe was fantastic for breakfast, highly recommend the waffles. Staff was amazing in the main dining room! Had to wait for drinks at the bar most days, still a bit understaffed but not a huge deal

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Silent disco was a lot of fun!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Production show was very good and the comedy shows kept us laughing

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Room attendant was okay…think she was new because she didn’t go out of her way to call us by name or open our cabin door for us when she saw us like they have done in the past.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Loved the layout of the ship, reminded me of the millennium…easy to navigate. Always cleaning the ship, rest room attendants were always friendly

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Balcony cabin, deck 7, wish there was outlets on the nightstands next to the bed to charge phone - had to charge phone on the desk

Ship tip

Book specialty restaurants early otherwise you may not get reservations

Key West, Florida

5 out of 5
Love key west! First time taking our sons and girlfriend so we did a “bar crawl”, listened to some great bands and did some shopping

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Rented a jeep, it was perfect since it was so hot .., went to a couple of different bars, and snorkeling was great

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

5 out of 5
Stayed two extra days after the cruise in Fort Lauderdale, had a wonderful time relaxing on the beach. Stayed at the Atlantic hotel and spa…great staff and it was nice to have beach chairs and umbrellas to use at the beach as well as bicycles to take a short ride to the store

George Town, Grand Cayman

5 out of 5
Love 7 mile beach…beautiful beach and delightful water.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Very smooth, as usual. Only issue was someone used black marker on my plastic luggage tags (wrote the cabin number on the tag, now I’m unable to use the luggage tags again)☹️
