Review summary

We booked another cruise this summer on the same ship, so that should tell you all you need to know!

Embarkation

2 out of 5
It was an unorganized mess. I have nothing good to say about the method of crowd control or organization.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Sooooo Goooood!!!! Absolutely first class!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
I used the steam room at the spa every day. Borrowed books from the library. We enjoyed the quiet parts of the ship.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
We watched the comedy shows which were hilarious.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Top notch! Achmed and Brycan (our room stewards) were the best. Give them a raise or promote them! Our waiters were Ian's crew of Filipinos. They were on it!! Never tiring, charming as they could be. Great guys! They deserve a promotion too!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Always clean and well maintained.

Cabin / Stateroom

Everything was perfect (except that tiny shower).

Ship tip

If you are a large person, upgrade to concierge so you can shower in the spa every day.

The port was closed due to weather which delayed our disembarkation by about 4 to 5 hours. The guy that drove the bus to the air port was a nightmare and spoke no English.

Quick comment that I am also a tall person and the small shower in our cabin was unusable. However, you can use the Spa shower at any time, so all was good.
