Review summary

Enjoyed thus cruise so much we booked again for January 2025

Embarkation

5 out of 5

When we arrived, we found a porter and checked in our luggage right away, no problems. When we saw how long the line was to get through security, we were worried it was going to take a lot longer than it did. Embarkation was smooth and hassle free

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We had FANTASTIC service in the main dining room each night(thank Kevin and Ashish) and the food was great. We had lunch at Johnny Rockets, the burgers and milkshakes were good, the onion rings, not so much. El Loco Fresh is pretty good for grab and go, along with Cafe Promenade. The food in the Windjammer was typical buffet choices but the food was fresh and tasty the times we went.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

There's a lot to do on board. Plenty to keep you busy.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Out of the 4 cruises we have been on, the staff on this trip was HANDS DOWN the BEST we've had. Everyone we dealt with were nice, friendly, helpful and polite. In my opinion, we couldn't have asked for better.

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

We knew what to expect from an interior room and we have no complaints about size, configuration, cleanliness or service, but the A/C only worked when it wanted too and most of the time the room was unbearably hot and stuffy.
