Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Bartenders were friendly and easy to get drinks everytime. Food was especially good. We had 5 meal plan but equally enjoyed the complimentary food. My wife is a picky eater and never complained!

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Only issue was cruise director. She left in the middle of the cruise. Not sure what happened but clearly she wasn't doing her job. Didn't affect us, we do our own thing anyway.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

After midnight and for the record were both quite good. Shows were easy to make reservations and good seats were always available.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The service and staff were truly the highlight of the trip. How is it possible that every interaction with staff was pleasant? Must be the captain because after 6 previous cruise this was by far the best staff. Across the board.
