Review summary

Fun. Price isn’t bad either. But I’d rather pay more for a smaller ship. And get that old time cruise feeling back.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very smooth.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
As well as to be expected. The food is very good. But they are now cooking for about 5-6 thousand people. So it looses something in the preparation.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Not as much fun either. The wait or you need reservations. And the pool decks & pools as well. Lots for people.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
The dining room staff were polite. And tried their best to please. The other Steward I never saw.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
It was a very clean ship. But it still a floating condo.

Cabin / Stateroom

Ship tip

Arrive early so you can maximize your departure day. Ships not that crowed yet. Looking back that might have been the nicest day.

Ports of call

Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida

3 out of 5
Normal port. Busy.

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
Fun. Places to go within walking distance.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Again smooth. That do this well.
