Review summary

Overall I had a very good time. I went to enjoy the scenery and ports. Excellent view from my balcony even though it was a bit chilly and some idiot was smoking. I have already scheduled another for next year, so many things I still want to do and see on shore excursions.

Embarkation

2 out of 5

Very chaotic

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

I only tried the Buffet and room service. Not much available for Keto but everyone seemed to be enjoying their meals.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

I didn’t participate. Noise, especially music, was at ear splitting levels.

Entertainment

I didn’t attend any onboard entertainment.

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Everyone was friendly and took their jobs seriously.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Lovely. Only drawback was that there are not enough elevators considering the numbers of guests with special needs, wheelchairs and scooters take up a lot of space.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Good size. Nice balcony. Shower was awesome. 6 jets and shower head. Mattress was not great. Everything was clean and fresh. Cabin steward, Ormel, was great.

Ship tip

Purchase some type of device to help you locate your luggage at disembarkation. I was a part of the last group and there were rows and rows of suitcases to hunt through. My Tile was a big help.
