Review summary

For first time cruisers we had a great time. Because we went in January, most Of the cruisers were the much older generation. We loved our cabin and the cleanliness of the ship overall. Dining room experience was a great memory.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

I wish some of the food areas stayed open past 9:00PM. Many of us would have liked to snack after the entertainment ended for the evening.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

It was hard to find one of the lounge chairs by the swimming pool. They were all saved by people who weren’t even there. They had their towels clipped to them.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

While the entertainment was wonderful (except for the comedian Nikki Carr) we had to stand for the music entertainment. There were not enough chairs. Nikki Car was raunchy, inappropriate and and not in tune with her older generational audience. Children had to leave as did half the people.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Waiters and room stewards were exceptional.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Very clean and great layout of ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Everything about our cabin was wonderful.
