We prefer the smaller ships as this ship you feel like a just a number. Didn’t get to experience as much and did not feel as catered too as you do on the smaller ships
Embarkation
1 out of 5
Stood outside in extreme heat for 4 plus hours with hundreds of people. Several people passed out around me. People are welling and arguing. Terribly organized and terrible communication and crowd control
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Food was ok. I have had better choices/ options in Dinning room on other ships. The small restaurants always had big lines
Onboard Activities
2 out of 5
Shows and activities were offered several times but the way the timing worked out you typically couldn’t do more than one thing in a might as by the time you left one thing and made it another other the place was packed with no more seats left
Entertainment
3 out of 5
The shows that I did get to see were good but couldn’t see many due to timing or lack of seating. Many things were advertised but then when you got to the areas people had no idea how to join in or get to get in on the fun
Children's Programs
My kids stayed with me the entire time
Service and Staff
1 out of 5
Dinner service no matter which restaurant we are in had very slow service making dinner almost 2 hours every night and often forgot part of orders didn’t fill drinks etc. room stewards were ok came once a day to make the beds but that was it. Nothing like Royal Caribbeans stewards so are VERY attentive .
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Clean easy to nevigate
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
When beds were down it made for a tight squeeze but that is expected.beds were very comfortable
Ship tip
Expect to wait in long lines for just about anything, elevators, shows, long time for dinner and service at bars
We enjoyed our Mardi Gras cruise as much as we could considering the crowds. I agree that venues and amenities were way too small considering the passenger count.
Thanks for the review. I’ve seen several comments about Mardi Gras feeling crowded and the public areas feeling too small. Hopefully they will resolve that on future builds.
