Review summary

The ship was beautiful and maintained very well.  They layout with the promenade through middle, gave easy access to every location.  The adults only pool and hot tubs were excellent too.  I learned at the Captain’s talk that all pool/hot tub water is desalinated from the ocean, and refreshed every 45 minutes.  Definitely a plus!!  We really enjoyed this cruise.  Departure location and pricing were perfect for us.  The only negatives were- of course there was the occasional smells from the plumbing that I’ve noticed on just about every ship.  We’ve been on 15 cruises, all lines.  The food was just average.  However, it seems most cruise lines have cut back.  No more steak and lobster without an extra fee.  Waitstaff was exceptional which made the dining experience fun despite the food.  Johnny Rockets was lots of fun and was a great junk food fix.  The worst thing was the entertainment.  We have seen some wonderful shows, comedians, and magicians on our cruises…none of these were on this ship.  The ice skating show was the only one worth seeing.  But hey, relaxing with a cool drink in the ocean breeze is great entertainment on a beautiful ship!!

We always bring a memory foam, then there are no worries with any beds.

Ship tip

Get your free ice skating show tickets (called Ice Dancin') on the first day. They go quick, and when they are gone you won't get in to the show. Book your massage on the first day, this is considered an in port day!

We did the excursions through Cruise Only, Snuba was OK. The experience was cool but they only let you go for about 15 feet then tether you to a rope. Catamaran Fury was terrible! I've done the Fury many times and always enjoyed it. Fernando and his crew were awful!!
