Review summary
Being our first cruise, we did not know what to expect, but it took only until dinner to start feeling comfortable with the experience. We met many lovely people (passengers and crew), had the most relaxing vacation, and saw four beautiful islands.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
World Fresh Marketplace
We were disappointed in the Cafe Caribe fare. It just didn’t seem to stand up to the standards of the other eateries.
Dining Room
We ate in Club Class Dining and will do it again on future cruises. The dedicated wait staff were charming, gracious, and fun. And the food was delicious.
Slice Pizzeria
Although it is hard to find seating during meal times, the buffet provided very good fare. And when you can’t find an empty table - just sit with someone you don’t know and make a new friend.
Crown Grill
Oh yeah. Wonderful food. Great service.
Onboard Activities
Entertainment
Princess Theater
I was amazed that every seat has a good view of the stage. The chairs were comfortable, but the seats could have been just a few inches wider for those with larger frames.
Explorers Lounge
The Explorers Lounge is a comfortable and quiet place to sit and relax with a nice drink of choice and good company.
