Review summary

Great first-time cruise. Able to stare at waves, plenty of food options, and room service.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

About the same as boarding a plane, somewhat less stressful. Finding parking entrance was a little difficult

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Great food, but the scheduling via Medallion app rarely worked without repetition. Staff were very attentive- absolutely no issues there.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Didn’t partake, just sampled while moving from floor to floor. Wasn’t intrigued by any of the activities b/c we just wanted quiet relaxation.

Entertainment

Didn’t really sit in

Children's Programs

No Kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Very on point and prompt, despite working 12 or 13-hour days. Went above and beyond!

Not a fan of the constant hassling to buy items, but at least they stayed outside a four-foot personal perimeter
