Review summary

Amazing vacation, we will be booking again soon. We are now officially cruise people !

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Parking was easy, getting luggage tags and security was fast. We were in the ship within 25 minutes.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Dinner felt so high class, it was fun to dress up and have a 3 course meal. The buffet had so many options but my favorite was brunch in the dining room.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The water slides! We hit the pool and jacuzzi a lot too. The bars had some fun events, we went to 2 trivia twice and had a great time.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The show girls show was short and sweet, some good song covers for sure. There was so many music spot to stop and hangout. There was a little if everything for everyone.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I’ve never had better service! My boyfriend and I were so impressed. They remembered your name and made you feel so welcomed. Each employees we interacted with enhanced the experience. There was always a smiling face ready to answer questions and help.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The whole ship was spotless, we don’t know how they do it.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
It was a small interior room, but had everything we needed and was very comfortable.

Ship tip

Get the drink package, it’s so worth it! You’ll want to try all the fun specialty drinks. But remember to drink water, bottles are included in the package as well.

Ports of call

San Pedro (Los Angeles), California

5 out of 5
We didn’t do an excursion because we are from San Diego so we drive down. But we did go to the famous San Pedro fish market, it was very good.

Catalina Island, California

5 out of 5
In Catalina we did the aerial adventure, it was more than expected. It’s really an adventure, it felt like learning a new skill.

Ensenada, Mexico

5 out of 5
For Ensenada we went snorkeling to the San Todos Island. It was a great time with fantastic staff. But I do think it needed to elaborate on the adventure before hand. It was an hour long boat ride and a higher level of swimming than expected. It was a full free swimming in wetsuits and flippers.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
For disembarkation we did our luggage ourselves and it was faster than expected.

Glad you enjoyed it. Cruising is addictive. It’s good to see the fresh perspective of new cruisers as to how wonderful they think the ships, service, food, entertainment etc. are as compared to experienced cruisers who seem to complain about most things.
