Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We only dined at specialty restaurants. Chops Grille in particular was superb. Service and food were excellent at both Chops and Jamie's Italian.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We mainly used the pool, it was good.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Evening shows were too late for children, this is a pity. The ice skating performance was stunning.

Service and Staff

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Overall good, missing some bar capacity close to the pool. Waiting times are too long.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

There was no sleeping option for the kid (4 yrs). The bunk bed is only 6+, and the sofa does not convert to a sofa-bed. So we ended up keeping her in our bed. Rest was good. Shower was so-so.

Ports of call

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

4 out of 5

Overall nice, except there is construction work going on until June which does not give a "perfect day" feel when you are coming in and out of the island. Lunch buffet options were a bit limited.

Nassau, Bahamas

5 out of 5

We spent the day on Balmoral island and fully recommend it. It's a fantastic venue.
