Review summary

Last cruise was 26yrs ago. Didn't like it. Finally decided to try again and LOVED it. Already looking to book again. Only looking at Mardi Gras, Celebration or Jubilee. Don't care where they go if I'm on one of these.

So many great options. Fully booked ship yet rarely waited more than a few minutes for any food.

Service and Staff

Troy was our steward and he was perfect. Carthy was a great bartender at Pig&Anchor and Liter was a great waiter at the Pool on deck 8.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The balcony was so nice to have for a little extra space. I think we would have used it more if the weather was just a bit cooler.

Ship tip

Explore! So many places to eat and things to do. Don't miss out.
