Review summary

Food overall was less than satisfactory...Seven dinners @ the specialty restaurants helped bail out "food deficiencies"...Entertainment was fabulous...Shows were better & longer than on most ships...The combination of cruise critic shore excursions when added to 21 straight rainless days also enhanced our cruise...In addition, the stylings of Ian West, @ Shakers piano bar helped mellow out the evenings. Being w/the Weisbergs, lifelong friends, also made this trip more memorable.

Cabin / Stateroom

Way too small...No aisle room...Nice cabin steward...Needs more T.V. variety...CNN alone will not suffice.

Ship tip

More shows should've been planned for the Epic theater; however, it's just too small for the amount of passengers....No navigation deck area for talks, readings, etc.
