Review summary

In if you have kids you'll love it get ready for Disney like crowds at sea.

Embarkation

1 out of 5

Embarkation was terrible the ship got in late we waited in line for 3 hours prior to boarding the ship. The Buffet was packed.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

The bars were always crowded and they didn't really have any mixologist on board so every drink was pretty boring. Outside of Ocean Blue - The specialty restaurants didn't impress and we did all of them. Cagney's was ok. Ocean Blue, I will say was fantastic.

Ocean Blue

5 out of 5

Ocean Blue was fantastic from beginning to end.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Almost every activities carried an additional cost, there was nothing calm, fun and free. The shows were wonderful some of the best, I've seen at seas.

Entertainment

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Ship was very clean - I will say with the ship being at capacity the Haven area seem to dominate most of the space you typically have on a cruise. I will never a do a ship with a designated area like the haven unless I'm in it.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Great Cabin Great Room Steward

Ship tip

Bring your kids! Do the private area if you don't

Disembarkation

2 out of 5

Again - Getting off it seemed like we waited forever to get off the ship and they shut down everything so there's no reason to be on ship after 9:00 so taking a later check out because your flight leaves late will not get you any additional vacation. You'll be stuck in a holding area.
