Review summary

There were 4600 Passengers on this ship. 700 of them children. The first port of call was canceled because of weather. All in all it was a very enjoyable cruise. If you put a smaller ship (half the passengers) next to this one and gave me the option with the same itinerary, I’d go on the smaller ship.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Long lines that were moving fast. Priority Line intact once inside building.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Food was good, but not five star worthy. Our best experience was at Moderno’s. Excellent Salad Bar and a great variety of meats.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Most cruise staff activities were in the atrium and while fun, very loud. The ship does not have a Spinnaker Lounge to contain such events.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We watched Burn the Floor and Six. Excellent. Even from the front row.

Children's Programs

We had no kids with us.

Ship Quality

Missed a quiet bar to be able to sit and talk to our friends.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
Size was okay. The two upper beds made it difficult to stand straight up right out bed. Also there was one closet and no drawer space.
