This was a 60th birthday gift and what a wonderful experience - we looked at each other at least once a day and said "How have we not ever done this before?" Seeing multiple locations while your "hotel room" travels with you, great food, great staff, great entertainment, all awesome. We traveled with another couple and had no problems finding plenty to do together and separately. I think the only negative (and it's small and I really had to think about it!) was the lack of cell service - we were prepared to be out-of-contact with "home" while we were sailing, but local (on-board) communications would have been really helpful for coordination, and we have gotten really used to looking things up at the drop of a hat...so, looking forward to sailing on the new "smart" ships!!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Food was fantastic! Our original plan was to only eat in the main dining room once or twice and to go with the more casual Windjammer buffet most of the time, but we ate dinner every night in the dining room. Portions were excellent - the fact that they weren't HUGE would allow you to try more than one if you wanted, without feeling like you were wasting too much!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We chose not to participate in a lot of the onboard activities, but loved watching the re-caps of the contests and game shows on the ship-board television station - probably will do less off-ship and more onboard for our next cruise.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Saw some awesome shows and absolutely LOVED our cruise director, Casey!!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Waiters in the Main Dining Room, cabin steward, pool area staff - all fabulous!
