Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Service was exceptional in all locations--main dining rooms are Good; Visited the Italina and the Asian Fusion and would recommend them both. The buffet can get crowded when looking for a seat so recommend going towards back of ship

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Great variety of activities and music in the lounges. Absolutely loved the hypnotist. The cruise director was extremely entertaining.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Surprized that so many try to learn and remember your name. Loved the little touches like meeting us back onto the ship and on the pool deck with frozen wash cloths and lemon ice

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Extremely clean and well kept

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Room steward was very nice and extremely attentive; towel anifmals are always cute, turndowns were nice. Just didn't like the high tub and would prefer large shower instead. Miss the lotion samples, soap bars and night chocolates from days of past

Ports of call

King's Wharf, Bermuda

5 out of 5

So convenient to everything on the island. Breezed through the shops and I liked them. Would recommend the glass blowing and the pottery for unique gifts. Loved the Carol Little shop at the port

Thumbs Up 0

Don't Miss: Take the free trolley around the port and determine what you want to do

Pros: The ship was clean and easy to navigate. The choices of activities on board the ship were plentiful. The cruise director was absolutely wonderfull. There were plenty of lounges and chairs among the decks that you did not need to get up early to

Cons: Did not like the high bathtub shower in my room-much rather would just like a large shower

Recommends Norwegian Gem? Yes!
