Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Food quality and choice were both excellent.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The entertainment was very good. Room accoustic was very good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Friendliness of the staff was excellent.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5

With the exception of food quality and entertainment, the rest of the ship was average.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

I had selected a concierge stateroom at extra cost to get better service and amenities. That did not happen. The advertised 32-in flat screen TV was nowhere to be found. Plumbing did not always work reliably.

The harbor is very striking with all the sailboats and yatchs. The town was friendly and clean.
