Review summary

We enjoyed this cruise very much! Most of our trip was very positive. The service was good, ship was beautifully decorated. The food was excellent. The ports were good choices. We enjoyed our excursion. The only complaints we would add are as follows: We would like a few more meat choices in the buffet dining area such as chicken tenders, ham, roast beef. Asparagus and brussel sprouts would be good as well, and macaroni and cheese. We were disappointed that we did not have free access to an iron for our clothes. We were not expecting to have to pay to have our clothes ironed. We were disappointed in a couple of the shows. One of the comedians was a disappointment (Max _______)...We would love to see more good family comedy like Alfred and Seymore. They were the best ever! And Drew Thomas was fantastic, too! We would like to have had more dance parties around the pool in the evenings. And we missed not having a luau or nighttime buffet/party out side.

Entertainment

Great for the most part. We didn't care for the Broadway/Cabaret/40's type music shows. Also disappointed with Max _______ - one of the nightime comedians.

Service and Staff

We would like to recognize Iwayan Budaisa and Victor Chase. They were our My Time DIning servers and were excellent! Our room attendant was Susanna Joseph. She was excellent, too! The buffet servers were busy cleaning up but did not offer to refill drinks as much as we would have liked.

Ship Quality

We were pleasantly surprised with our interior room. We loved the comfy king-sized bed and sofa. Enough room, well-lit and clean.
