This was our second trip on the Mariner and we were looking for a relaxing vacation. Sitting in the solarium area was so peaceful and deck 12 after dinner provided all we needed. I would recommend this itinerary to my friends.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Very organized and easy. If you have all your paperwork in order, there shouldn’t be any delays.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We enjoyed dinner in the main dining room most nights, had a delicious lunch at Jamie’s and tried the buffet for breakfast and after-dinner snacks/dessert. Always plenty of variety.
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
We really only relaxed in the solarium and did not use/participate in any activities on the ship other than the casino.
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The production show was entertaining, but it was the only show we chose to attend.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Excellent service from our room steward, Noel, to our MDR wait staff, Bernard & Kevin.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
Layout of the ship made it easy to access all areas of the ship. Common areas were clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The bed was very comfortable and the view from our balcony was perfect. We had one issue with moldy water from a pipe leaking into our bathroom, but maintenance came immediately then our steward cleaned up the mess. Overall a comfortable and clean room. Quiet!
Ship tip
Bring your own reusable straws, the paper ones disintegrated fairly quickly. Also, next time I will pack things like antacids or aspirin, as we could not find them for sale in the shops onboard.
