Be ready to wait forever for a bar drink and food is horrible. Ship is beautiful and so is private island.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Drinks were great if you could get one. Had to stand in line a minimum of half an hour to get one drink. Food was beyond terrible. Also, they push everyone into the buffet at lunch on embarkation day and it’s a disaster. Too many people and not enough food lines open.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Didn’t do any shows but the pool area has something going on all the time.

Entertainment

Didn’t go to a show

Service and Staff

Great room steward. Otherwise the bar service was horrible. Not enough bars open and too few bartenders. Very unorganized.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Ship and rooms are beautiful and clean.
