Review summary

Some of the best things on the cruise were: the teppanyaki, cagneys steakhouse, and the casino. I think my biggest critiques would be the lines for EVERYTHING. Waiting 20 minutes in a line for a drink at the beach bar wasn’t very fun. Additionally when you play the game shows like the Wheel of Fortune or Deal or No Deal most people win nothing and it is kind of pricy. With such a big ship, there is just so many people that it really causes quite a lot of waiting.

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5
The bed was very comfortable, and we had a lot of room for storage. I would say the carpet was very old and had a lot of stains and the fake wood accents just looked outdated and dirty. I didn’t think it was very clean but it was a good size for an inside room.

Ship tip

Book reservations for the restaurants and ice bars early! The lines on this ship were very long for drinks, and food.
