Review summary

We really enjoyed this trip. Great service all weekend from staff. The highlight of the trip for me was the Chefs table it was beyond amazing. Our cabin was also fantastic. The ship is absolutely beautiful. Experience in the spa was fantastic and the Persian garden was a great spot to relax. The staff at the sunset bar were top notch. And drinks were good at every bar. We did have an issue with the mixology class we booked they didn’t have us as well as several others who booked on the list it was a bit disorganized. It was also the only thing we did that I would never do again it was a waste of money in my opinion. Also and this is not necessarily a celebrity issue although the staff allowed it, a few guests brought their school age children to the food and wine pairing class. This was listed as a 21 and up event that was not cheap and the poor sommelier had to talk over children who although we’re sitting to the side had the volume going quite loud on there tablets and were running between the tables to talk to their mothers. The kids club and activities on board are so good I’m not sure why their parents didn’t take advantage of it I’m sure the kids would have been happier. I really want to rave a minute about the entertainment staff EVERY singer band and musician was just so talented. If you go on this ship do not skip the shows they are just so enjoyable.

Appreciate your feedback. Sorry about the children at the wine paring. We attended a few where folks go to drink and socialize, it ruins the purpose of the event! Glad you enjoyed your in spite of it.
