Review summary

There was plenty to do on the ship - explore and get lay of land early. Overall enjoyed it.

Embarkation

2 out of 5

Very disorganized. There was a representative that was ineffective at directing people into lanes. Lines were long and for older individuals it was upsetting to see them standing in a queue for up to 25 minutes. Ship maps should be handed out with the cabin cards.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

The should have been more options for shows with that many people. The opening day (re: Cotton Club) only had 2 seatings with limited times. Didn't see anything but the Brat Pack which was great. Other activities were good.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

See above. Never figured out where to go to dance in the evening. Missed having the Jazz Club.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Room steward was very attentive and specialty dining hosts were very helpful. Otherwise, staff was ok. Unattentive on coffee bar.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Usually, there’s always a deck party in Spice H2O every night. Didn’t you go? Lots of good music and dancing going on. Also, there’s a lot of different shows and trivia going on at the Atrium. A lot of fun. You didn’t go to that either?
