Review summary

Good cruise, not sure i would do again though. We were really disappointed in the ship musicians overall. We are musicians so having to avoid bad performers i the bars was annoying.

Onboard Activities

Pools were small, fullof kids and too much chlorine. Fitness. Enter was ok, some machines didn't work right.

Entertainment

2 out of 5
The celtic sisters were excellent!!! The adagio duo onboard was excellent and the piano lounge guy was solid, but all of the other ship musicians were disappointing. They didnt know many tunes and the ones thet did were done on repeat and were weak. The jazz group should know how to play jazz!!!

Thanks for sharing your cruise.

you should contact HAL and let them know about the music. They have cut back on the musicians on board so it makes it harder on board to listen to not only good music but music in general.

You are at the advantage of knowing good and bad. Folks like me just listen.
