Overall it was a fun cruise. O’Sheehans service and bartenders were amazing. Extremely friendly staff. Not much for kids ages 5-16 to do.

Onboard Activities

Pool was too crowded. Seats were “saved” with towels on them but people weren’t using them for hours.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Some of the performers were fun!

Children's Programs

1 out of 5

Our 3 kids did not have much to do. this is not a family cruise. I would say more of a couples or adult group cruise

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The bartenders at O’Sheehans were above and beyond! They were amazing and ready to help anyone. They made the kids feel welcome and included. It was our groups (22 of us) favorite place to be mainly because of the Bartender’s and their fun personalities! The back deck bartenders worked hard but they needed more help. They were going a hundred miles a minute and had smiles the whole time but needed at least 4 bartenders at a time. They worked so hard!! The room stewards were kind but our toilet was empty and didn’t flush so we asked for assistance. It must’ve overflowed when someone came in to fix it. When we got back to our room the floor was covered in watered feces and smelled awful. The woman cleaning rooms came over to help me quickly and scrubbed the bathroom floor spotless. She was amazing. But should not have had to clean up the mess from the guy fixing the toilet

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Spotless and clean! The crew did a great job

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

It was extra small. We could have used a bit more space but overall not bad

Ship tip

Mainly for adults. Not geared towards children and teens
