Entertainment

4 out of 5
The shows with the singers and dancers didn't make much sense. Lighting was often off in timing. The Boulevards were great! Enjoyed the gymnasts and juggler as well.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We were at table 549. Amit and Ekodana were great and should be commented. Dev was also very attentive. Ram was a room attendant for cabin 4010. He was great. He handled my requests with ease.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
I love this class of ship. The size is great. There is plenty to do without being a behemoth. Although the Jewel is an older ship and shows her age a little bit, it is still the best for couples.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our cabin was always clean and the size is as expected. The beds were a little hard but still slept well.

Ship tip

Relax and enjoy! Skip the casino.
