Review summary

Upscale feeling cruise on a beautiful ship with wonderful crew. Sadly opening hours of food and pools/hot tubs were enough to detract a bit from an otherwise lovely cruise.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Embarkation in Miami took 1 hour 45 minutes from arrival to scanning on board

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Sadly the most glaring drawback of this cruise was the food. Specifically the included food. There is a complete lack of variety in the buffet. Every day they serve hot dogs, hamburgers, cheese fries, pasta, potato salad, & pizza. After 14 days I was SO TIRED of eating on the ship. Also food shuts down incredible early when compared with other lines. And room service after hours is comical at best. Often serving banana chips with a ham sandwich… (I wish I was kidding)

The entertainment was the standout of this cruise. From the dueling pianos to the main stage productions.

Ship tip

Pre purchase the trio specialty dining package. Otherwise you will tire quickly of eating on board.

Nice meeting you on board, when are your vlogs coming out for the rest of your seahorse trip. We didn't eat often at the buffet. Just late night pizza, really. Really liked the ship, but the week was way too short, and we didn't get out of the yacht club much.
