Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Great dinners in the main dining room, never had a bad meal. Need more vegetarian options besides starches on Lido deck especially late night as there are only a few spots open. Not so great breakfast in main dining room, two nights back to back my bananas tasted like onions (either used the same knife or were stored by them). Omelette station on Lido deck is the best option for breakfast. loved Tamarind, PInnacle and Rudi's!!! amazing service and food. Room service left much to be desired, especially for Dinner, we got a couple options with cheese and the cheese seemed fake--powdered or processed...very strange.Loved the pizza and burger spots during the day and late night. Real cheese there, lol
Overall good food experiences, but a few misses which were surprising with the huge emphasis the ship puts on its culinary experts.
Explorer's Lounge
5 out of 5
This is part of the crows nest, our favorite bar for happy hour. It feels like a cozy members only club that you have full access too, kinda like an airline club. Games, books, puzzles and great views.
Onboard Activities

Spa services are great, did a couples massage. ..they will try and sell products but aren't terribly pushy. Gym looked wonderful but didn't use it. Pool area is nice and there was always plenty of space to lay out and lounge.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Great entertainment, especially at BB kings and BIllboard. Took in a couple of the mainstage shows..was totally shocked to see that all singers and dancers were white for them. Zero diversity was unbelievable. BB kings was was the exception here, a range of talent of backgrounds They were talented though. The no diversity piece regarding main stage show is the reason for my low star rating.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
We were in room 1088 but found out it is underneath the kitchen and became very noisy. We were moved to 1026. The picture is of 1088, but 1026 was the same set-up just flipped. NIce size and efficient, loved having space under beds for luggage and full size shower/tub. Also great closet space. Loved all the free movie options.
Didn't get off the ship because it's a tendered port and the water was really choppy. Tender boats looked like they were on a roller coaster, didn't look fun.. lol
Thank you for such a comprehensive review. We are sailing on the Eurodam on Jan. 14th and am happy for the heads up. We were on the Zuiderdam in Dec. 2016 to Panama and loved it. So glad you had a good time
