Review summary

This cruise was very good. We had choppy water and lots of swaying but we always enjoy the sunshine and getting away.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

It was the smoothest yet of all our cruises

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The dining room was great, great employees that served us, buffet was just so so but making food for that many would be tough. I didn’t starve that’s for sure. The pizza restaurant was spectacular. We ate calzones every day.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We did the fitness center every day which was great and pools were nice and not too crowded. Enjoyed the hot tubs as well

Entertainment

3 out of 5

we enjoyed the comedian a ton. He was very funny. Retired LA cop. There was an illusionist that was ok and we sat in a lounge after dinner and listened to a guy play guitar and sing. Those were the highlights

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All the staff were great. The bar tenders seem to be annoyed most days serving coke products. There had to be a better way to get coke yourself so you don’t have to bug them to fill your mug. They were very busy making drinks.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Very clean and well managed

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Clean and comfortable. Not a fan of the room over the theater. Loud base thumping every night

Ship tip

It’s great for older folks that don’t need entertainment. The shops on board are useless. I would have liked to see more things like candy and snacks than coach purses and paintings.
