Review summary

Cruise was great! We were a family group of 11 with ages between 6 and 72 celebrating a 50 year anniversary. There was something for everyone to do, children especially loved the programs for them. We did it all, from rock climbing to learning how to cut fruit. We liked the drink package and excursion packages that were included. We were sorry to miss the private island due to weather. The ship was very clean and everyone was very friendly. Food was great.

We had 3people in cabin - room was small and when extra bed was turned down for night, we could not access our balcony and very little floor space left.

People saving beach chairs entire day with towels from early morning and also tables, leaving nowhere to sit when poolside lunch buffet was served.
