Review summary

We had a great time for our first cruise. We “over packed” as we were told would happen. We loved the excursions and all the activities that were offered. Looking forward to our next cruise!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

The drink package is worth the money, don’t think about it and do it! The Buffet was “ok”! It was convenient and quick. We enjoyed the breakfast, but it was the same options each morning. Lunch was the same options, but wonderful to get to your next adventure/ cocktail. The Chophouse was amazing! Highly recommend this as a dinning option. The also highly enjoyed the Japanese Steakhouse! We tried Pub and found the food to be great, at 2:00am! 😉

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

There were so many things for the kids to do and they had a blast! I couldn’t have been more happy with cold adult drinks and hanging out in the hot tub, although very crowded. The evening shows were a lot of fun and we highly recommend seeing Million Dollar Courtet!

Disembarkation

The only opportunity that we experienced was with my mother with limited mobility. It was very difficult getting her off the ship, going through customs and finding our luggage.
