Review summary

Overall, my family had a great time on the Breakaway! This was our first experience on a cruise ship and we did not know what to expect nor did we have anything to compare it to. The ship was clean and staff was very friendly and helpful. The food and drink selection was wonderful with a variety of options. It was a bit windy some of the days so we missed out on some of the outdoor activities but plenty of other things to do on the ship. We went during Spring Break so there were a lot of kids (to include my own) to compete with but that is to be expected when you travel during times like that. We had a great time
