Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse
Great steakhouse at more than half the cost of a great land steakhouse.
Big Chicken by Shaq
Thank you Shaq...hit the spot when needed.
Alchemy Bar
Excellent as always. Great crafted drinks. Having had this on other ships, maybe a refresh on the menu could happen however if you talk with your mixologist, you'll try something new.
Fortune Teller Bar
Excellent to have another creative cocktails option.
Piano Bar 88
Keith is the best. Many nights of sore abdomens with his antics.
JavaBlue Cafe
Great included fast breakfast and lunch options.
Rudi's Seagrill
First night on the ship...sat outside and enjoyed some excellent seafood.
Cucina del Capitano
Had this on the Magic many years ago and great to see it as an included option. Visited twice for a great Italian meal.
Guy's Pig & Anchor Smokehouse / Brewhouse
Don't ask, don't inquire...just get the fresh vegetables infused Tito's Bloody Mary. Just get it...maybe a few times.
Guy's Burger Joint
Keeping up the good work as always. Great burger when in need of a burger.
Onboard Activities
Summer Landing
Sweet spot for some Aft views while tanning.
Serenity Adult-Only area
The best adult only area I've been on ever on any cruise line. Many chairs, hot tubs, fresh salad option (phenomenal) and continuous bar service with smiles.
Dreams Studio
Vipul produced an excellent set of pictures.
Beach Pool and whirlpool
Very nice...lots of people make this crowded fast yet that is typical.
Entertainment
BOLT Ultimate Sea Coaster
I am a roller coaster junkie, loving the most terrifying, fast, adrenaline rush coasters and absolutely loved this coaster...both at port and on the sea.
Punchliner Comedy Club
Great comics...CeeJay by far the funniest.
Mardi Gras Theater
Great shows...spaced times yet still felt crowded or couldn't get a seat even though arrival one hour before. Missing the second/third floor option.
