Review summary

Because of the poor food in the main dining areas, the sad room we had, and the small entertainment venues, we did not enjoy this cruise as we have all our other cruises.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Quick and easy because we got to the port early.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
The main dining room had below average food as did the buffet. The specialty restaurants were much better. However, the food in the specialty restaurants was comparable to the food in Royal Carribeans main dining room.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Many activities conducted in the Atrium where there were not enough seats for the passesgers on the ship.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The stage shows, singers and dancers were fantastic. However, other than the theatre, the venues were not large enough to hold the people who wanted to attend. For example, Headliners, Syd's.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
The room stewards were great. Dining room staff below average. Guest relations staff very good. One internet person for over 3500 passengers. Always a long line.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
We did not like the concept of the Atrium being the hub of the ship. All extra events were held there and there was little seating. Guest relations had to contend with the noise. I don't know how they do it.

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
We had an inside cabin. We have been on over 20 cruises and it was the smallesr room we have ever had. There was no storage--no drawers--just a shelf above the hangers and one shelf in the closet that folded clothes could fit on.

Ship tip

Don't do it.
