Loved the areas we saw. Would go back to see them.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
The entry to the terminal in Quebec City was extremely hard to find. We waisted a lot of time.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
In my opinion, I didn't feel there was anything special about the food. It was just okay. Loved the atmosphere of The Manhattan over the other dining rooms. The buffett's hot food was never hot, unless you ordered and omlet. I had to send back my food at The Q as the shrimp tasted bitter.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
My husband enjoyed going down the slide. We played mini golf. He also used the fitness center a couple of times. I'm not into all the gameshows that were played around the ship.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
I wish Elements included the singers. On a ship this size, it can be hard to get into the various venues. We went to one show in the theater only to find it was standing room only, and I think it was only on the schedule once. Tried seeing the Beatles show at The Carvern, but that was so full there was no way to get in. Perhaps there should have been tickets for this also.
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
I found most of the staff very friendly.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
I didn't find anything wrong with the cleanliness of the ship. I wish the casino wasn't part of the main walkway.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
We liked the angled balcony. The room was clean. Couldn't find anything in need of repair. The mattresses need to be replaced, but our steward did bring a mattress topper and mattress pad. Not a fan of the duvet - either too hot with the duvet or too cold without. Plenty of storage. Not a fan of the closet location.
Ship tip
Go make your own opinion. You may not like what I like; you may enjoy many things I don't. Go have your best vacation. And, don't be afraid to ask for something.
We rented a car again as we felt the excursion options were too high and not what we wanted. We did a fishing trip on the east side of the island. Wish we would have had more time. Again, lovely area. Not touristy.

Did the hop-on, hop-off bus. When we went to the booth to get tickets, they asked if we were on the cruise ship. Apparently if we weren't they couldn't sell us tickets. It was a great overview of the area. The guides were knowledgeable, though they may have told different stories about the same thing. Not sure who was right. We were able to go back after the ride and hit some of the places we heard about on the first ride around. Walked through the park and heard some music. Went back to the boardwalk and did a little shopping.
