Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We did not use any of the specialty restaurants. The main dining room provided all we would need in variety of food and service. Well lit and clean.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

The main entertainment shows were quite good. All performers were talented, but as will all things, not every show was to my liking. Most of the headliners were quite good with one or two excellent. Different band played throughout the ship, and we were consistantly able to find a band that would play music to which we could dance.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room attendant was friendly and very helpful. She always had a smile and a pleasant word. When minor repairs were needed in the room (ie broken hinge on closet door), she made sure it was handled quickly.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We had a balcony cabin. No smaller or larger than any other balcony. The particluar balcony was larger than others on the ship with 2 chairs, a small table, and a lounge chair.
