Review summary
Once you get past the unconventional cabin layout the rest of the ship is set up to accommodate anything your heart desires to do on your vacation. We enjoy fine dining and the specialty restaurants did not disappoint. Although a large ship we never waited in any long lines ( except debarkation, not on the ship but customs who had only 4 agents) and the reservation system for entertainment and restaurants worked well. Non-stop activities appropriate for all ages both at pool and atrium. First two days, a lot of rain, wind and rough seas but ship seemed pretty stable and there was so much to do inside that it didn't really matter. The two broadway productions were the best I've seen at sea. Comedy club, Cirque dinner show, The Beatles look alike band, painting classes, bowling, pool tables, large casino, dance classes, trivia, art auctions and on board shopping kept us busy. I definitely would sail on this ship again. My sister really enjoyed the free hand dipped ice cream choices, pizza delivery and the steaks at Cagney's Steakhouse. I liked that no one pushed taking photo'a or cocktails on you. It was a really laid back atmosphere.

Ship tip
Make your dining and entertainment reservations before you sail so you get your first choice. If you want to do some specialty restaurants and also schedule production shows I'd do alternating nights as it takes 2 hours min. to eat. Premium seats at Cirque in upper balcony for best view.
