Review summary

Post covid expectations met. Staff were wonderful. Smokers and drunks not so much. Kids program disappointed many. I was just disappointed with how many children were on the sailing. Obnoxious teens not monitored by parents at night.

Loved being midship. Bed very comfortable. Shower nice size. Balcony a little small.

Ship tip

Get vibe if you have little tolerance for children and parents who let children take over adult pool
