Enjoyed the shows and music.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our waiters in the main dinning room (Da Vinci) were exceptional. Both Arman Huerto (Waiter) and Ferdie Gantone (Jr. Waiter) made us feel that we were eating with family. The staff in the Buffet were great...keeping tables clean and always there with a smile to pour you coffee and tend to our needs. Our steward (Athiwat Pliuchai) was outstanding...attending to our needs and room. Very helpful and flexible.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

I saw no design problems and the ship was kept very clean.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Cabin had plenty of room (enjoyed the balcony) and was kept very clean.

Ship tip

Try the International Cafe.

We did this cruise in 2015 on this ship and it was great! We too love the sea days! Our hang out is the Crooner's and we've had a lot of fun and met some great passengers and excellent staff. Glad you enjoyed your cruise.
