Review summary

This was an excellent cruise. I would definitely go on the Dawn and sail this same itinerary again

Embarkation

4 out of 5

The embarkation process was a bit strange. They were checking us in via iPads instead of computers and the communication didn’t seem to be there but we got on the ship fairly quickly

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We loved everything especially Tepanyaki

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5

We enjoyed all of the activities put on by the cruise directors staff from trivia to game shows

Entertainment

5 out of 5

We LOVED that there was a different show in the main theatre each night. The aerialists were from Americas Got Talent and they were my favorite and the comedian was also hilarious

Children's Programs

We don’t have children so don’t use these programs but heard good things

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

All staff were absolutely fantastic especially Bruno and Matt

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

I enjoy smaller ships and loved the activities mostly being held in the Bliss lounge which is larger so many people can participate. The only thing I would change is the coffee bar in the atrium into a full bar

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

It was good for being an inside cabin however we should’ve paid more attention to the location because it was right where people got off on port days. There was also a table that we needed in the room to put things on but was very awkwardly situated
