Review summary

It was a wonderful short cruise. We wanted to make sure kids liked it & didn't get seasick is reason for a shorter cruise. Now we know they enjoy cruising as much as me & my husband. My Daughter & her husband enjoyed it also was a first for them too

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Food was great we were hoping for lobster on formal night so was a little disappointing but other than that it was fantastic

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
only say good instead of excellent because we didn't have time for some of them but the ones we did were great, grandsons & son-in-law really enjoyed the rock-climbing wall & kids pools

Entertainment

4 out of 5
same as earlier the ones we went to were great just didn't have time for all of them because of travel agent booked late setting for dinner so not time for early shows unless we missed dinner or were late and kids fell asleep because we were in dining till 10:30

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
It was good everything was clean & took good care of. They were working on some railing but we only seen that part when we were going to safety meeting before we left the port. And it was well roped off & children didn't go near.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
It was a little small as we are use to the larger ships but the room was very comfortable and the bathroom was a little bigger than i expected on a smaller ship. Kids loved having to go up a ladder to get to bed :)

Ship tip

Wear comfortable clothing when you board or run change into cooler clothing because it gets hot when you go to safety meeting then head to front of ship if possible we saw dolphins. She is a sweet ship we were a little worried when reading some of the reviews about strange smells & her being old & run down that is not the case everything was very clean nothing appeared old or run down. I believe those reviews were written before her makeover. It did rock more than any other of the ships we have been on but did not bother us or our daughter & husband or 3 small children.

I'm taking my 7-yr-old on a 4 night for that same reason too. Glad to hear they enjoyed it.
