Review summary

Wonderful as it was we thought a couple of days too long. Also, now having tried Celebrity, we prefer Holland America. Not that we would not do Celebrity again if they had a cruise that struck us to do.

Embarkation

2 out of 5
Valparaiso is a disaster of a boarding port. Disorganized and very long lines and wait.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Main Dining room and buffets were top notch, Outstanding food.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We were not impressed with most activates, unfortunately we were mostly bored on sea days. Thank goodness we had books to read.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The entertainment was about 50/50 in my estimation. Some of the singers were not so good, some of the musicians were outstanding!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Top notch staff and crew all around. They made the cruise so enjoyable.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The Infinity is showing its age. Having said that, it is still a nice ship!

Cabin / Stateroom

Just right, bed was comfortable.
