Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Windjammer had an amazing vibe and the servers were the best! Very attentive, always smiled and continued to treat guest with respect and royalty. We truly appreciate all their hard work to make it feel like a vacation and not lift a finger. Many funny characters and entertainment! The fine dining is another amazing feature. The waiters and servers are on top of their game and treated the guest with tons of love and smiles!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Rock climbing, the hammocks, pools, hot tubs, the pool tables and the gym. I thought I was going to be limited with my workout but there were many equipment and the placing of the trendmills and stairmasters were perfect. It was like running while on the ocean!

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Grease was a phenomenal musical! Another show that was hilarious was the comedian name Landry! Freeze frame ice skating show was also great!

Thanks for your review. Taking this same itinerary April 6. Never been on the Indy. Looking forward to some relaxation and some sun! We haven’t had very much of that in the Mid-Atlantic...
