Enjoyed it tremendously! Was at awe at the beauty of the ship's exterior as well as the interior. The detail to the interior design was something else! Would recommend this ship to all my friends. Loved the elegance of the dress code in the evenings. The entertainment was fabulous and the theatre performances were spectacular!🚢

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We only used buffets on 8th and 16th floors and Ipanema dining room. We found variety of foods for every palate. Clean and well set up. Important fact was in the entrances there were sinks to wash hands and not only to use sanitizers. Well planned Seaside! Nice presentation of foods. The staff very friendly and trying to please all of the guests. All the bars very clean and beautifully designed. Very elegant and clean dining room. Enjoyed every evening!
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Enjoyed whirlpools and sun tanning. Unfortunately didn't get a chance to do other activities, simply not enough time in a day.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Entertainment was amazing! Loved every venue of each performance! Theatre was spectacular as well as the performances! Very talented musicians, DJ's, band members, professionals top notch!
Children's Programs
Didn't travel with children. However, saw the facilities and very much impressed with staff's caring for the children as well as their safety. Adventure land was spectacular as well!
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our waiter Sailesh and his team were fantastic. Room steward was very accommodating. All ship personnel very polite and willing to help with whatever we needed, especially directions!😄
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
We were at awe with the entire ship and it's design. Once we became more familiar with the layout it was quite easy to navigate. The only suggestion perhaps for easier navigation would be numbered exits, for example, Exit 1, Exit 20, so that if you found yourself out of the elevator you can look for an Exit number to orientate yourself back to where you need to go or be.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Loved our cabin! Very roomy, comfy king size bed, soft pillows and large sitting area. Our bathroom roomy with a good size shower. All very nicely designed and decorated. The room was clean and well maintained each and every day. We had a closet door off its hindges when we embarked and it was repaired and hung back up the next morning when we were gone to breakfast.
Ship tip
Just enjoy every venue and view of the ship. It's absolutely breathtaking! Not only exterior but interior design and detail of decor. Please don't worry about the number of people aboard, you won't even feel that the number is so large.
We embarked here. Easy to get here from Miami Airport by shuttle. Embarkation was well organized. This was our first Ocean Cruise so we were impressed by all. We also disembarked here and it was so well colour coordinated that it was very smooth for the amount of people aboard. Suitcases were there waiting for us! Wow! That was great!
Quick, well organized getting on and off the ship. Yes we had an excursion here. It was the Glass bottom boat. Very interesting and nice trip seeing the large homes of the rich and famous as well the many varieties of colourful fish. Good security screening as well.
Port was good, however, the excursions were a little chaotic. Long waits for buses and traffic bad around the only road around the port. We had an excursion here as well. Enchanted Gardens, Bird Aviary, and mini Waterfalls. Very interesting and educational excursion once we got there, but we were picked up with other people not going there so we had pit stops to deliver everyone else and we were last to our stop. It wouldn't be bad because it's a scenic drive, however, traffic was something to be desired. Bumper to bumper and only a two lane road. So we spent too much time on the road!
Nice long pier! Very nice Port with many shops. Yes we did an excursion. Scenic route around the town and to the beach and back in a thatched roof vehicle/wagon. This was our hottest port of call. Enjoyed the weather here!
Fantastic! Easy and well organized!👍The information boards carried all the colour coded times and PA system also announced information. Kudos to the teams that carried this out!👏🏻👍
Thanks for a great review.
Can you tell us about how you booked the shows? Was that done onboard or earlier?
There was a note on theme parties, white party and 70:th Party? Was there any on your cruise?
Thanks in advance.
