Review summary

Overall, I would definitely do this exact itinerary again. In each port, there are so many things to see that it's impossible to get bored. We loved the itinerary and LOVED the Haven!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Perfect embarkation experience. We were greeted individually, accompanied throughout the entire process and then personally escorted onto the ship, given a tour and then take to our room. We loved every minute of it!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We especially enjoyed the specialty restaurants, even on the nights we used the main dining we would go for late night dessert/coffee in the French restaurant!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
LOVED the Haven experience. The private pools/hot tubs, bar and dining were great. Took any negative regarding cruising (crowds, lines, buffets) right out of the picture.

Entertainment

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
We had a fantastic butler, Mary Jane and a great steward. We were very well cared for.

Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our Haven Deluxe Owners Suite was immense in size and completely luxurious. The only thing I missed was that the balcony (which was huge) only had sliding windows to open and you couldn't prop them open.

Ship tip

Spend the extra, stay in the Haven!
