Review summary

I like the size of the ship and that it was not very crowded. The recent Hurricane might have played a part in that. Too many sea days and not enough to do. The ship board activities did not very much from day to day.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Did not use specialty restaurants, buffet did not very much in daily selections. Service in dining room often slow

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

Not much for more active adults. Trivia, board games, etc. Most of the fitness center offerings were an additional charge

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Very talented entertainers. Especially Shirley Dominguez who played and electric harp and the Adagio duo

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Wait staff in the Lido restaurant was very good. So was room stewards. Other personnel, office, entertainers etc, would pass you by and barely acknowledge you
