Review summary
We believe every vacation is what you make it. The purpose was for us to get away, relax and spend time with each other without the demanding pressures of our jobs, our larger family and community and that’s what we did. We don’t rely on others to provide a good time for us we make a good time with what ever resources we have and whatever space we are in. This was a great relaxing and fun time.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Teppanyaki
This was a lot of fun and the food was very tasty. Comparable to any hibachi place in NYC. Although you make a personal order they make a lot of food and you will get to taste other things. For instance, I ordered the filet mignon but also got shrimp, scallops and chicken because others ordered it in our group.
Onboard Activities
Fitness Center
My husband used this the most and after he found a sweet spot in terms of time when it wasn’t over crowded he was fine. The only complaint he had was there wasn’t available staff to manage when people were taking too much time on machines or with equipment.
Mandara Spa
This was my haven for the entire cruise. I got the spa pass and was in their everyday of the cruise. I also had two massages throughout the week which were very good. The only negative is the last 2 days I think the oversold day passes including to teenagers who when grouped together can be noisy.
Bliss Speedway
This was a lot of fun but if you are a large person this will be uncomfortable for you. My husband is 6’3 and and he felt cramped in the car making it difficult for him to maneuver.

Ship tip
You can book almost everything using the tv in your room which is what we did as soon as we got on the ship.
