Review summary

The Thermal Spa was wonderful after a long day at port. Very relaxing.

Embarkation

1 out of 5

Embarkation was total chaos. Couldn’t hear the announcement of who can board and when. Told to go to the wrong lines 3 times and when questioned the employees they were rude. The last one finally agreed we were in the wrong spot and because we had priority boarding and Platinum we could have been on the ship 1 1/2 hrs before we were. This was the first disembarkation that was insane out of my many cruises.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Drinks were great at all bars. Specialty dining was horrible this trip. We had 4 of them. La Cucina, Teppenyaki, Food Republic and Cagney’s. Every one of them our food was like warm and service was slow. Very disappointing. Cagneys filet mignon was like shoe leather and the truffle fries were hard and cold.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Entertainment
