Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

The main dining room food was so bad, we ended having to make arrangements at the expensive specialty restaurants for the rest of the cruise. I mean, fake crab on a ship??

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

No pool slides, no real production shows, nothing but Trivia contests.

Cabin / Stateroom

It was pretty nice, but one morning we were awoken super early by a hammer-gun doing some work right below us. They could have waited till later. No apologies either.

Ship tip

Pick a different ship ( maybe even a different cruise line).

We went jewelry shopping in the port and got scammed by a jewelry store owner. Had to get the police involved to get our money back.

Disembarkation

3 out of 5

We were given instructions to gather in an area by 8:30 am, but they announced we were supposed to be off the ship already at 8am. The entire cruise was very disorganized like that.
