Review summary

We returned to cruising after an absence of 10 years; a short repositioning cruise sailing out of Vancouver, BC to San Francisco. The reservation agent with was very well informed and helpful; if she didn't have an answer for me she found someone that did. From the moment we entered the cruise port everything was so very well organized and efficient making the embarkation very smooth. The express check-out was an excellent idea. The Lotus Spa was fabulous, from the treatments I received to the overall ambience. The Personal Choice Dining suited us, as it didn't tie us down to a specific dining time, and, we met some interesting passengers where we shared stories of past cruises.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
It was nice to have several dining options.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The stand-up comic on our first night didn't seem to be prepared; his performance seemed to be based on the reaction he received from the audience, which got a little boring. The juggler on the second night was excellent!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our cabin steward was especially friendly, always greeting us by name.

Ship Quality

We were pleasantly surprised by how clean everything was. Our stateroom was very well appointed with lots of closet room. The balcony was especially nice.
