Review summary

Good cruise with all adult couples and singles. Very little children or families. The staff seemed to enjoy 😊 us too. Everyone was relaxed and having fun!

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Proceeded to board by groups. It went fairly quickly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Excellent bar and food service. The only day the MDR service was slow was on the first day.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Entertainment was top notch. The two groups of comedians were the best comedians we had seen in 17 cruises. Big Iron, Royal flush and Beatles were excellent. We also enjoyed the pianist/vocalists. The violinist show and Choir of Man were superb.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Excellent staff and service. Especially enjoyed the singing staff in the buffet in the morning!!

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Loved the modern, clean lines of the decor. Very tasteful.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

Good location as far as proximity to atrium and restaurants and theatre. This was an interior cabin. It was the smallest interior cabin we have stayed in comparison to other interior cabins on other cruise lines.

Ship tip

Book excursions as soon as they are available online. Book speciality restaurants and shows as soon as you board ship
