Review summary

This was a bucket-list cruise for my Mother, but turned out to be a great eye-opener for the rest of us as well. We are well-travelled, but had not previously cruised. Even though several of us have spent years on-the-sea in our private vessels, combining the sea experience with the pampered care of the cruise was an eye-opening opportunity. Thank you!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Incredible food, but more importantly the service we received from Rey, Panda, and Ardi were off the charts

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Always a cozy place to curl up and be alone, or enjoy things with others whose 'first time exuberance' was contageous

Entertainment

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our family shared two suites. Cliff and Aristotle became as a member of our family while maintaining complete professionalism. They were 'miraculously' outside the door every time we walked into a passageway

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

spectacularly clean and well appointed. Maintenance was top-rate

Ship tip

We would arrive at the port of call a day ahead of the cruise, and arrange transportation directly to the cruise terminal. The excitement of 2000 people originating the experience of a lifetime but not knowing what to expect can be, at times, overwhelming. Once aboard, and integrated into the ship these anxieties evaporated, but we will change the initial experience in future cruises.
