Review summary

The bars/lounges, the food & above all else… the staff.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Lines were haphazard at the terminal. Once we got on the gangway, things moved smoothly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was great. The Garden Cafe buffet offered lots of choices to eat or snack. Savor & Taste are have identical menus. The Manhattan dining room has a changing menu. The Local Bar & Grill has nice quick food. We also enjoyed Teppanyaki, Food Republic & Cagney’s specialty restaurants. The bars all great. The District Brew House on deck 8 is a nice hangout. Many bar/lounges have flexible , comfortable seating. Entertainment rotates among the bars. Bartenders & waitstaff are fantastic.

Ship tip

When in Bermuda, skip the excursion tours and rent a taxi. Shoutout to taxi #1029 Sydney Robertson. He provided a great tour to experience the true feel of Bermuda.
