Review summary

The crew was friendly and helpful, the ports beautiful with many great options for adventure! The ship is new, clean with lots of options for dining and entertainment. They show movies in a couple locations, have a theater for live shows, a dinner theater with a Magic show, bowling, an arcade, and much more! Staff was very friendly, though as they are quite new did not have all the answers yet, but they will get there! I am not sure why, (though I am certainly not complaining) but we got comped many items while on board, from the standard bottle of wine, to chocolate covered strawberries and 4 free meals at the upgraded food locations. It was a great experience so go on and book this cruise!

My daughter is twelve, but a grade up in school. The programs do not allow for her to be with her actual peers. There should be allowances for such occurrences but the stick hard and fast to the rules and she wasn't allowed up in the teenage group.

Cabin / Stateroom

Large enough for four, with a bunk bed that pulls out from the ceiling. The balcony is also large enough for four, the levels above getting smaller and then smaller again. Beautiful room!

We were on the Breakaway this past Feb. too big. Nice, but too big for our taste. The best thing we can say about her is, she leaves out of NYC.

Hi there, I'm planning to book this stateroom, I'm wondering if it was noisy from the public areas Thanks
