Not much interesting things to do on ship.

Pool

1 out of 5

The staff never paid attention to us. The pool was salty and small. Most of the time not even music to listen to.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
Only the tenors and the comedian on last day. All others not impressive

Service and Staff

2 out of 5
The bar service is the 2 star rating. The rest would be s 5 star. There were 2 incredible servers to mention. In dinner Hongie and Her assistant Wahyo. These two were the best servers we have ever seen anywhere. They always paid full attention to us.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The mattress was thin and hard. The cable had no options other then things to buy on ship. Our housekeeper Kadek was very excellent friendly,kind, and always paying attention to our needs. Truly a major asset to the ship.

Ship tip

Bring your own entertainment to ship nothing in or out of cabin to do.

We also went on the Empress a week before you did. I agree there is hardly any activities on board. I choose this ship because I knew it would be a break from the norm of what I am use too. This ship is Quiet and relaxing however very little to do for teens and younger.More of a "Senior" type cruise. So, if someone is looking to party all night long I suggest a total different ship for you. GOOGLE the Empress first before you decide.
