Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Good & service were great. Would like more variety on menu, especially desserts. Had to pay for lobster & wished for creme brûlée or better options. Disappointed in room service offerings so only ordered once, only cold food available :(

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We had at the pool, enjoyed dance lessons, music & dancing. Also enjoyed the Casino & shopping on board.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Performers were very talented & performed well. Shows were not as good as expected like I experienced on the MSC Divina a few years ago. Michael Jackson show was over the top!

Always a great time at Señor Frog's & enjoyed shopping. However, my friends purchased three diamond rings at one shop & came home to find they were Cubic Zirconias! I would never buy expensive jewelry there again!

Nassau, Bahamas Did not visit port

My friends enjoyed their time there. We have been there many times, so we stayed on the ship & relaxed.
