Review summary
Overall, this was a great cruise experience. Entertainment on board was very good. Cruise Director Dan Dan and his staff are outstanding and very engaged with passengers. Food, while always subjective, is good; menus had a good variety of items to appeal to all tastes. Overall condition of the ship was good - clean, and neatly kept. Crew members other than in the MDR friendly and professional. Our Room Steward Ben was excellent. Bar staff excellent, especially at Shakers and Maltings Beer & Whiskey Bar. Loved the poolside barbeques on sea days. Wish there was a quiet pool for adults as the 2 main pool areas got a bit crowded and noisy especially hot tubs which were kiddie pools every sea day. Overall, we enjoyed this cruise and would do it again.

Ship tip
The hallways on deck 8 are very much like a maze in that it is not a straight walkway and it takes a bit to acclimate. We loved the location anyway.
