Review summary
Nice new ship but not enough deck space. Pool deck is small and crowded. Go-kart track and laser tag, as well as Haven sun deck and vibe beach club take up most of the space. Go karts and laser tag can not be booked prior to cruise. They have to be booked once you get on the ship and sell out fast- we could not get a time slot by the end of embarkation day. Food was excellent and there were plenty of good drinks to be had. District Brew house had something like 20 beers on tap and more in bottles (included in the beverage package). Los Lobos and Cagney’s were excellent. Service was worse than average, new ship with new rules so many people at guest services had no idea what they were doing. Shows were average. Kids club is small and uninspiring (thank god for iPhones). Internet hardly worked. At the end of the cruise, my overall sentiment is that I just got nickeled and dimed, baited and switched, and I’m going to stick to RCCL from now on.Embarkation
