Review summary

Can't say enough about this beautiful ship! We could always find a lounge chair on the pool deck on sunny days--we liked Deck 17. They have showers and hot tubs on Deck 17 which make it convenient to cool off without having to go to the pool deck. Drove the race cars and they were fun and challenging--quite a few laps so substantial. Only con would be that there is not a promenade deck and the jogging track on Deck 17 got crowded with joggers and walkers. Loved the entertainment--especially Jersey Boys. Good entertainment in the smaller venues also. All in all a wonderful cruise!

Food and Dining

Food was good in the MDRs, buffet and the specialty restaurants. Tried the new Q--we thought it was really good. Tried the brownie dessert which was huge, couldn't eat even half of it.

Ship tip

The Bliss was definitely designed for viewing in Alaska--the 15th floor Observation Lounge will be great for viewing at Glacier Bay. The view from the Garden Cafe forward on Deck 16 right above the Observation Lounge is the best for spotting whales, dolphins, etc.
