Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food available was good, but included options were lacking. Pizza, main dining room, and buffet was all that was included. Anything else is an up charge.

Onboard Activities

Entertainment

1 out of 5
The only good show in the ship is the ice show. Very little to do as a family after dinner.

Children's Programs

4 out of 5
My daughter enjoyed the teen room and activities, her only complaint was the wide range of ages in the teen club. They really should have a pre-teen and teen.

Ship tip

If you want a lot of entertainment pick a different ship. If you just want to chill by a quiet pool then this is for you.
