Review summary

The Monarch was beautiful and we loved the trip.I thought it would be bigger from the photos online. But it was really nice. I picked the perfect room on deck three around from the elevators so we were close to the dinning room and straight up to the buffet and pool deck!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was soo wonderful we had different choices every night even at the buffet! I loved Vincents dining room and all the food was the very best I could imagine! My 13 year old son only ate the pizza every day for lunch but he was happy!

Entertainment

Children's Programs

3 out of 5
My teenagers were a liitle bored they said the teen activites were to childish! They wanted a smoothie bar or more dance events. Also the brochure said they had the Wii system but it was broken so not enough video games for down time. And the times were not good for both of them ! I havea 13 yr old and 15 yr old. And all the times were different so they could not go together! They need to schedule more things for this age.

Don't Miss: The USS Midway museum was awesome!!

Ensenada, Mexico

1 out of 5
This is a run down city and you should go to Cabo or Rosarito instead of Ensenada.

Pros: The Foood was awesome and the staff was great!

Cons: The Teen area was not open as much as it should be and not enought things for teens to do that were age appropriate. My teenagers did not have much to do that they liked ! You should have had a smoothie bar or more video games in the Living Room area.
