Review summary

We really enjoyed our cruise. The ship was beautiful, food could have been better but I didn’t have to cook or clean up after so I’m happy with that. The ports were mostly good but still good to see a snapshot of different cultures. The thing that annoyed us the most was the frequent travellers moaning about everything. The more they have travelled the more they moan. If it is so bad just stay home.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Main dining room was mostly good but certainly not fine dining. Had 1 meal in the crown grill which was very nice but 2 steaks were very rare which is not what was ordered. The market place buffet was sketchy at best. The breakfast was always cold, bacon was burnt. Lunch was the best meal and dinner was not always appetising either.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Organised activities were not really to my liking but the Hollywood pool area was awesome and hubby enjoyed the fitness centre.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

The best shows were the princess dancers and singers but you have to get there at least 30 minutes prior to get a seat. Most of the other shows were very good.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Service and staff were always excellent. These people will do anything for you at anytime.

Ship tip

I don’t think I would book shore excursions with the ship again. Almost everyone goes to the same places and just ends up a massive bottleneck at all the venues with hundreds of people there. I would spend time investigating private tours for different options.
