Review summary

My husband was hesitant to be "trapped on a boat" for a week, but he is a convert now. Even our impossible-to-impress children had a great time and are already asking when our next cruise will be.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Painless and quick.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

We were very pleasantly surprised with the quality of dining. In particular, Ocean Blue and Le Bistro were standouts.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

The pool area is always too small and crowded on cruise ships. No different here.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

The live music bands were great, and the Beatles show was amazing! The guy who is "Paul" even played bass left-handed!

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Our room steward saved us from our own mess, time and again. And he was super friendly, too. He was a amazing!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Everything was kept very clean on board at all times. We were impressed.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Our cabin was snug, but fine.
