Review summary
The ship far exceeded our expectations. The staff was friendly and available at all hours with a smile to meet any needs or answer any questions. The staff even worked hard to anticipate our future needs, as well.The food was everywhere, delicious, and overwhelming with the many creations. The food, alone, was an experience. The decks were comfortable and a great place to relax. The whirlpool was wonderful, but the pools were too cold for us to use.The shore excursions were safe, well-planned and amazing experiences with great guides. Sometimes, a better system for getting larger excursions off the boat would have been preferred. We loved the late dinner sitting, so we could have time to relax from excursions and the day. We did have trouble coordinating our daughter between shore excursions and dinner to meet with the youth group. However, the staff worked hard to please both children at all times, as well as the adults. Our stateroom was kept clean, we always had clean towels, ice and water, as well as beds always set up for the time of day with mints at night and information for the next day's activities. We found the stateroom to be ample, even with two children and two adults in one room with two bunks and two lower beds. We would love to do this all over!Ports of call
Pros: The food, service, and friendly staff who try hard to meet all our needs
Cons: Swimming pools too cold, and youth activities difficult to coordinate with excursions
