Garden Café

3 out of 5

This is your run of the mill buffet on a cruise ship. The choices didn’t change as much as I would have liked, which is why I gave this an average rating. Don’t get me wrong though, the food tasted great, just limited options.

Cagney's Steakhouse

5 out of 5

Dined here for my birthday dinner with the group I was sailing with. The service was top notch and the food…quite literally the best steak I’ve had in years. This restaurant is definitely one to enjoy!

Sugarcane Mojito Bar

4 out of 5

This place was always busy during the busy times! However, I now know that I LOVE mojitos. You must try the Pineapple Coconut Mojito!

The Tropicana Room (Main Dining Room)

5 out of 5

I LOVED this dining hall. The food was great and the live entertainment added such an amazing touch.

Entertainment

Overall, the entertainment was great. However, the GM might want to consider a different cruise director…

Spice H2O

5 out of 5

I thoroughly enjoyed the adults only venue…the bar was ALWAYS packed but the drinks kept flowing. Watched a game and lounged and enjoyed being in the sun.

Howl at the Moon

5 out of 5

I am a huge fan of dueling piano bars…this was so much fun and a must on board!

Service and Staff

Honorary mention to Dang…the best bartender ever!

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

This was my first balcony experience and I loved every minute of it. Being a bigger guy, the shower situation was horrible but that’s no fault of the cruise line. My only complaint…A/C in the room is horrible. It doesn’t stay on for prolonged periods of time…I am hot natured so this is important to me.
