Review summary

A balcony cabin was the best choice for me because i spent a great deal of time in my room. My priority on this cruise was relaxation, so lounging on the queen bed binging watching movies with the curtain pulled back on the balcony was perfect!

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Good experience..only a couple hiccups.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
I dined at Cagney’s, Ocean Blu, and Los Lobos. All were delicious but my favorite was Ocean Blu. As a Marylander, I must admit that the lump crab cake from Ocean was one of the best I’ve had in a while.

The Observation Lounge

5 out of 5

Awesome view, light music with drinks..it was the best ending to a busy day.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The Thermo spa is the absolute best. I was in the spa pool almost everyday!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Beside Jersey Boys, which was excellent, I most enjoyed the live music in the observation lounge and a couple in the lobby. Really enjoyed all, but Paul on the piano on the observation desk was my favorite.

Children's Programs

No kids

Easy. I carried my own bags, so no hassle. Long line to get off the ship, but that expected with 4700 passengers.
