Overall we really enjoyed our cruise and found it a great value. Our son had a single room and wasn't charged any more than my wife and I.
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Not bad. We drove to the pier. Last 2 miles took about 40 minutes, but after parking the car at 10:30 AM we stepped on the ship at 11:45 AM.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Ww would give the nod to Celebrity/RCI for food, but the food was still good with sufficient variety.
L'Olive Doree & L'Olivo D'Oro
4 out of 5
Tables were close together, but waiters hustled to get MDR meals completed in 90 minutes. We liked our 6 PM dinner time, which made it easy to book shows.
Brass Anchor Pub
5 out of 5
Nice pub for craft beers, acoustic music, and trivia.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
We used the pools, hot tubs, water slides, walking track, and fitness center and enjoyed all of them.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
We went to the Broadway and Cirque shows, Comedian, Magician/Mind reading shows, and enjoyed the Soul Band and guitarist Russ Clark. Most variety of entertainment we've experienced.
Carousel Lounge
5 out of 5
Great theater in the round with great technical design and special effects for the Cirque shows.
The Broadway Theater
5 out of 5
Nice venue. Had to get used to reserving seats.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Again we thought Celebrity and RCI are a little better here but still good overall.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Very clean, modern ship. Took about 2 days to get the layout figured out.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Overall the size and cleanliness were good. We had to change rooms after 2 days due to bathroom floor flooding, which was blamed on our room sharing drainage with the pool. Storage is tight for 2 people.
Ship tip
Don't book rooms 10188 or 10190 due to bathroom floor flooding.
Thank you for your mostly wonderful review! I will definitely keep your tip in mind and not book either of those 2 rooms, as I'm hoping to soon get my cruise booked on this ship!
