Review summary

Embarkation

5 out of 5
We're avid cruisers and this was the quickest embarkation ever! Perhaps we timed it right, but there was no waiting, and all staff members were efficient, friendly, and professional.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We had a drink package included in our reservation, so no additional charges. The dining room food was more than adequate for dinner, and our servers were excellent. The buffets provided occasional quick meals when we wanted lunch or a snack after returning from port visits. We did not visit the specialty restaurants on this cruise.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
We rarely participate in the activities; we're more interested in the ports of call.

Entertainment

We chose to not participate in entertainment.

Children's Programs

No children accompanied us.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our dining room waiters were attentive, friendly and efficient.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
The ship was always clean. Once we learned elevator locations all was good.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
We enjoy AFT cabins because they are very quiet and the balcony was larger than normal.
