Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Buffet was mediocre until about the third day, then it improved. MDR food was great, waiting a bit to be served though.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Loved the pools, hot tubs, escape room and ice show. On a short 4 day cruise there wasn’t enough time to do it all.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

I’ve show was 5 star, kids loved it! Music was good.

Children's Programs

4 out of 5

Our 3 kids loved the club and always asked to go back. Sometimes it seemed a bit much for one person to Hanse though.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Our room steward was awesome, only went to MDR once and it was ok. There were a few key staff that made it great!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Ship was pristine, always being well kept

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Cabin had plenty of storage space, good layout, bathroom was small.

Ship tip

Have all your documents ready to board and try to go to the MDR as much as possible, food is much better there.

Ports of call

Nassau, Bahamas

We didn’t travel in Nassau, we did go to the blue lagoon and we all absolutely loved it!

Perfect Day At Coco Cay, Bahamas

5 out of 5

So much to do here, we rented a bungalow on south beach and also had the half day water park, they were too far from one another, we hardly spent time in the cabana, finding a trolley to take us back and fourth was a pain.
