Our first cruise - I have never experienced relaxation like this before - no worries - no stress. Loved it
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Two words - The Key! Awesome experience - in my opinion worth every penny!
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Main Dining and the one specialty restaurant we did eat at (Giovanni's) were excellent.
The buffet was - well a buffet although a very good one. I would recommend utilizing My Time Dining as well as going at off peak times.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We were never at a loss for something to do. In fact there were things we wanted to do but couldn't get to - a LOT of options...
Entertainment
5 out of 5
The shoes were very entertaining.
Children's Programs
No kids on this cruise for us.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The service was top notch. Very friendly and personable staff.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
It is an older ship but still very nice.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The cabin was great. The only downside was the bed was VERY firm - caused us both to have a backache every morning.
Ship tip
A few tips - 1) research the shore excursions and typical shipboard activities before your cruise date. 2) Go to the early show then go to dinner - less busy at dinner and no rush to get to the show. 3) take advantage of The Key and drink packages - purchase before hand.
The excursion was great - more Mayan ruins. Port was very commercialized - too many jewelry, skin care and tequila shops - yuck. Local hand made goods were minimal and generally not something I would put in my home - what little there was there was generally vulgar.
