Review summary
My wife and I have been on several cruises. This was an excellent first time cruise for our two young teenage girls. The rock wall, Flowrider (wake boarding), Ice skating, and the standard kids activities kept them happy. The shows were very good. The Promenade was also spectacular. The food was very good, with exception that several nights my wife and I were underwhelmed with the dishes, compared to other cruise experiences. The wait service however was the best we have had. The service on the ship as a whole was outstanding. Housekeeping, guest services, excursion services and the people we experienced throughout the ship were all great. The exception was the Casino. It had quite a few problems. If you're going and gambling is a big part of your cruise, I would think twice.
