Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Our dinner experience in the dining room was awesome. I forget to asked for Michael last name but he made sure that my party of 13 is taking care every night. Our waiters was great too. He even sang 2 separate birthdays song for people in my group same night. Buffets upstairs was nice too. Especially for lunch.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All the staff l encountered was great. They seems happy to be there and love what they do. Very friendly!

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Ship seems old. Bathroom is way too small. Common areas were very cleaned.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Is okay. The room could use a better layout. I can’t have my twin size bed together with my husband because my daughter have to use the bed on top. Other ships was not layout like that.

Ship tip

Don’t be surprise about the size of your stateroom bathroom shower.

We were surprised at the size of the shower. Someone had mentioned it was small, but we were still amazed at how small. Glad your aunts enjoyed the cruise!⛴
