Review summary

Overall the cruise was great. I would love to go on another but probably to a place with better weather for a hawaii family.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Prior to Embarkation we received notice that our ship has an outbreak of norovirus. Great news headed onto your first cruise

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

They mass produce food. So the quality is as I expeceted

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Freezing cold for a family from hawaii so we could not use much of the on board fun. Not a whole lot of kid friendly activities i felt.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Would be a 5 star except the lady at our hotel had such a horrible attitude. Although she is not part of the ship crew she is part of the cruise line staff

Ship Quality

got lost a bit but overall not to hard to find things. Was definitely clean as the prior cruise had a norovirus outbreak.
