Review summary

I loves the freestyle cruising as I could do it all or do nothing at all. I loved the clear warm waters, anything to get off the cold pools of the ship.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
Extremely long and slow lines. Not enough security check station only two machines were on.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Many eating options and able to accommodate.

Onboard Activities

Everything was always crowded such as jacuzzi. The pools were freezing even though the description and staff said they were heated pools.

Entertainment

Every night there was a new exciting show and they were amazing. I wish there was more comedy shows during the day.

Didn’t have children

Cabin / Stateroom

I am from NY so I didn’t explore the area since I am familiar with it.

Port Canaveral, Florida Did not visit port

I tried but the excursion people gave me the wrong information and I couldn’t get a bus ride out of the port.
