Review summary

Overall, I wouldn’t go on this cruise ever again...due to the lack of attention to people with kids..closing the pools and making the rest of the available pools adults only..also the lack of entertainment st the piazza was horrible..there was none..New Years sucked compared to the New Years on the Royal princess the year before..

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Very fast

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Pretty good food..very repetitive

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

There wasn’t much to do during the days at sea

Entertainment

1 out of 5

Horrible..no entertainment at all..New Years finished at 1 am and was very boring..nothing to do in the evenings..usually there would be some kind of music in the piazza but not on this ship unless u went to a bar

Children's Programs

2 out of 5

There was a storm so they closed off 2 of the main pools..went to the other pools that were for kids but they decided to make the pools in the back of the ship (not the sanctuary) adults only..so the kids were mosserable..that was not right..I was really upset over that and so we’re a lot of other parents..especially since the adults weren’t even swimming in them..they wouldn’t let the kids swim and the pool was empty..ridiculous

Just got off of cruise and at the airport....Great cruise...Wonderful ship!! No complaints about anything. I see some people giving this ship a bad review.... don't believe them. The people that give this ship or princess a bad review will not and can not be pleased... in other words... they are over entitled, over privileged people... enjoy your cruise it was wonderful!!
