I guess I already wrote a lot. The ship is beautiful, clean, great staff, but needs less trivia and more things to do especially on days when you go to port but, decide do stay in. I slept more than anything, which isn't bad, but, it was not what I paid for.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
They were clean but, the Liddo did not have much to offer like other ships. There were cookies for desert, ok, gelato was good, but only 2 stations for food and both the same. I was very disappointed. I paid a pretty penny for this cruise. But. there were other places to eat and the food was good. Some restaurants offered first time free and that was good. But, the chicken parm at the italian restaurant was hard, and I had to leave it. Asked for a cesar salad and am still waiting for it, oh well!
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
It lacked as far as I'm concerned. Yes it has activities but not eveyone can do those activities especially if you are disabled and limited. Too many Trivias and not much entertainment, especially during days when you are on a port and can't go out. Bahama I expected an island like other ships where you had a buffet and the beach was close by. Well, it was on the other side of the stores. Really disappointed at this new ship, instead of more and better additions, it was less than expected.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
The staff were excellent, but, not much entertainment as expected when compared to other ships.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Most staff were good. I would never get a daily program delivered to my cabin, I had to get one at the service desk. As for kind staff, they sure were.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The ship is beautiful and was kept clean. Now as a disabled person who has to use a scooter, why is it that ships do not have ramps built in them so that we can avoid the elevators. Have you any idea how many times I would be waiting for an elevator, just to have someone come after me and jump in leaving me waiting for the next one. I have yet to see any new design to accomodate the disabled.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
My cabin was excellent except for one thing.......why in the world would you have such loud alarms sound when the phone rang. The first time that happened I thought something was wrong with the ship and I jumped off the bed, just to realize that the room was equipped for the hearing impaired or the blind. I asked for it to be shut off, staff came, did something, but it was never shut off. I tried doing it myself and received a phone call because I pushed a button, obviously the wrong one, to shut the alarms off and it did not work. They had me push a green button by the bathroom door and that never worked. So I jumped so many times and was pretty frustrated. Other than that the room was clean and comfortable.
The time I went out to the port, no problems, great service, they deserve a 5. But, when it came to disembark to go home, I was directed to the casino area 7th floor and waited just to be sent to the 6th floor, waiting for an elevator to be available, while others from other parts of the ship were doing the same thing. This caused a problem, because if you are asked to get to the disembarkation area early with your luggage (did I mention I was disabled) and sent to one floor to wait, then to have to take an elevator again to go to the next floor to leave the ship, it was ridiculous and not at all worth it. Because, the crowd that one expects to avoid to get out on time to catch their ride to the airport were all there. So why in heavens name was I told to hold to my luggage and bring it with me to the casino for early disembarkation just to send me back to the elevator, dragging my luggage to go down at a time when everyone else was leaving. JUST DID NOT MAKE ANY SENSE!
