Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

We had one meal at LeBistro which was good. The rest of the time we had to eat at The Garden restaurant - the buffet. All of the free restaurants were too busy with too much of a wait and everyone was telling us they had to wait forever to get served.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

They only had a small adult pool and it was too crowded to even think of getting in. There were NEVER any beach chairs available.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

The Elements show was fantastic and the country music and Beatles music was goo.

Children's Programs

No children. It was weird that they had the children't hot tub and pool right across from the swimming area.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Room stewards were great. The food and beverage people seemed a bit uptight.
