My absolute favorite thing was the Vibe Beach Club and the great bartenders Roger, Danny, and team. It was not packed like the pool deck on 14 and the mass of humanity. Next was the quiet Floor 15 Observation Deck in the morning with coffee with no one around.

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The specialty restaurants were over priced and overrated. I was still full usually from the drink package and the great lunches and breakfasts from the main dining room.
The main dining room had side bars with British breakfasts and rotated great Indian cuisine in addition to the standard great fare. I normally grabbed the breakfast or lunch and went either down to the quiet observation deck on 15 or the Vibe Beach Club (great add on) on 19.

Entertainment

Seemed to be hard to come by. I did not attend any as it was packed with people and tough to get seats.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
Vibe Beach Club Bartenders (Danny, Roger, Leo, and William) were outstanding - efficient / witty / talkative when appropriate, and quiet in the early mornings. Definitely worth the add on.
Some of the staff could not read the Observation Deck room from 0530-0830 where people escaped to the quiet zen. Some of the staff would meet up and socialize in the bar area during that quiet time.

Cabin / Stateroom

Balcony was good. King size bed was great. No real complaints on anything.
Ship tip
Research the excursions - swimming w pigs was a waste of money and time.
Swimming with Pigs was 90 minutes // about 80 minutes too long. We were ready to move to the beach, but couldn’t get a ride back even though all four boats were headed back for more tourists.
