Review summary

Overall, we enjoyed this cruise. Staff was wonderful, pleasant. A shame the food in the main dining room wasn’t better.

Seashore Restaurant

3 out of 5

Great atmosphere, our waiter was very good but the food was mediocre at best. Our last meal I got Southern Fried chicken. It was seasoned with curry. Took 2 bites and went to the buffet. The small Margaritaville ship had better food.

Really didn’t participate

Entertainment

4 out of 5

The musicians were very good. We enjoyed the Seaside bar with acoustic guitar and piano players. The others entertainment was good as well. Theater did NOT have a live orchestra, all canned music. And who writes those shows. A dinosaur in a Peter Pan setting? Really? Good acrobatics though

Our cabin maid did a fabulous job with our room. Room was really nice and kept well

Ship tip

No sign for adult pool or area. While I love kids I’m not crazy about others misbeved brats. I appreciate an adults only area and pool. The ship was really nice. Clean and well kept. We go again in August
