Despite it being a smaller ship and the challenges of members of our party having mobility issues we still enjoyed our cruise. The first time cruisers in the group had a great time
Embarkation
5 out of 5
I had uploaded most of the required info and documents on the RC app so embarkation was pretty painless and took only minutes. There was no long line or crowds
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
I was pretty happy with the selection of food and desserts offered
Great Gatsby Dining Room
4 out of 5
This was my first time doing my time dining. I think I prefer having a set time with the same waiters every night, who already know your preferences etc. Never less the food was enjoyable as was the variety of desserts.Things did seem a bit more harried for the wait staff than I recall in the past, but they all worked hard
Windjammer Marketplace
5 out of 5
Great selections. I saw areas dedicated to gluten free diet restrictions as well
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
I honestly didn’t do much on board activities. I did catch some of the poolside activities. Not much to do later at night though
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Because I didn’t realize you had to pre-book my time dining we ended up with late and weird times that made up miss most of the nightly entertainment. But it was not a big deal.
The karaoke ( it had another name) was good and the musicians in the centrum were decent
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Excellent service by everyone
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
I saw some very disparaging comments about the ship and was really concerned. I should know by now to ignore the bad reviews.
Yes, the ship is smaller, but that did not bother me. Some have mentioned it was rusting and all kinds of things. I saw no major disrepair or rust. It was kept clean and was a perfect size for getting around easily without getting lost
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
It was a decent sized cabin and bathroom compared to what I’ve experienced.anytime I can take a shower without my body touching the walls of the shower, I’m happy.
I’ve never had so much storage space. Even we, 2 over-packers did not use all the shelving offered in the room. This was the most shelving I’ve seen on the ships I’ve been on
Ship tip
If you have My time dining, reserve your times as soon as you are able
@calliegater- I too was nervous reading the reviews but I am learning to ignore the bad reviews of ship, accept each for its uniqueness and just enjoy the experience. I have never experienced anything bad enough to make me not enjoy being on a ship
