Review summary

We love cruising and enjoyed this cruise. We sat at dinner with three other couples who expressed very similar thoughts and experiences, we were the only couple that said we would do this line again. The Ship offers a lot to do and is beautiful we ate good food we did fun things and were entertained.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
We had 7:30 seating,food was average and selections not great. They do three seatings so had a seating later than ours. Service very slow was told most nights we had to leave as they delivered our coffee and deserts. Was very odd. (dinner is usually our favorite thing on a cruise.) Pizza is good. Buffet average. service horrible. non existant.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Games, shows, trivia, flumes, contests, zipline . Activities are aways on going and fun. they crew gets people excited.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Children's Programs

Service and Staff

2 out of 5
The really good ones just don't make up for the bad ones. We enjoyed and recieved great service from a few to include our cabin steward and a couple bar staff. but for most part very slow service everywhere on ship with attitude that you really don't matter.
