Review summary

Great, short trip. This is a great option for people looking for a quick getaway.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Embarkation went well but there were issues with checking in my daughter. We were not able to complete the passage contract prior to arrival on the app and the the agent also had trouble. Took a little extra time but we got through.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Main Dining was excellent. Food was very good and the service was exemplary. The buffets were good, we mainly went for the kids. We only ate at the Crown Grill for specialty dining and it was excellent. The only complaint is the reservation system through the app. It is not very easy to use and seems to glitch and change or cancel reservations.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
My kids, 9 & 5, love the kids programming. We experienced the Sanctuary for the first time this cruise and it was wonderful. This cruise was an Adam Savage at Sea theme, so there were multiple opportunities to interact and listen to stories from Adam and his time at MythBusters and beyond. It was a great experience.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
There was only one production show, Rock Opera, and it was fantastic.

Children's Programs

5 out of 5
The kids loved the kids programming. The only issue is that it ends at 10pm when the late main entertainment would sometimes go until 10:15.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
The service and staff were excellent as usual.

I tried to talk the wife into that cruise. That would have been fun, for me anyway.
