Review summary

Compared to other cruise lines, this one was a disappointment. Even with only having to pay port fees, taxes, and gratuities, I felt like this wasn’t worth the money. I took advantage of a free alcohol package and wished I had chosen another option because the daily drink selections were not very good

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Very fast and efficient.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
The food was not good at all, and the drink package wasn’t worth the price

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Pools and hot tubs were nice, but other than that the ship was rather boring. It was great for an older crowd, but I would not recommend for younger people or children
