Review summary

Wished for a relaxing cruise and got it! The crew/staff actually pampered us. I did miss being able to dine with the Captain, however. Felt that using the Covid issues was more an excuse then a reason.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

Spent quite a bit of our time listening to the large array of musical performances available.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

For the most part, the stage shows were good 9much better than recent Alaska and Athens-Dubaui cruises. The one thing I can’t tolerate is the excessive volume levels in the Stardust Theatre and other venues (at times painfully so). The Elements show was exceptionally good, as were the daily performances by the guitarist/vocalist, Randon.

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All the ship’s personnel we came into contact with were exceptionally friendly. Several of them went out of their way to accommodate us!

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

A shape there’s no lounge on the upper foreword deck, such as the Spinnaker Lounge found on several of your other ships. However, the cleanliness of the ship can’t be faulted. Everything was clean and well maintained!

Cabin / Stateroom

It was good
