Review summary

We had a great time because we were with family and friends but there's more cons to the ship than pro's so I would never sail that class of ship again.

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Cagney's and Palomar were good, main dining room's food and service wasn't good and the buffet was very small

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
the slides were excellent, the escape room was fun, the mini golf was wasn't working totally and for only sailing 4 months the the activities looked very run down.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The performers in the Donna Summers were exceptional, the Noise Boys was canceled so we never got to see it. The comedy club and Syd Normans Pour House were very small so we never got into see those shows. Some nights the comedians were in the stage area instead of the Improv room so we them there but not sure if it was the same material. The group that performed in the Atrium lounge were excellent but again another small area so very hard to get seats, had to stand for the whole performance.

Children's Programs

didn't have children with us

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Our room steward was great and a lot of the bartenders were too but the rest of the staff was was just okay

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
common arears were clean but the layout was terrible. Arears where people could've got together to watch shows or just hangout were small, not enought seating. You had to walk thru the crowded buffet to get to the pool. The whole ship did not flow. The activities in the Stadium were not maintained and made it look like you were on a old ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The room was very clean, the butterflies flying out of the girls eyes in the artwork in the room gave me nightmares. The bathroom was fantastic, great sink and shower. Some of the areas in the room were narrower than I expected but it was okay.

Ship tip

2 pieces of advice, first thing you need to do as soon as you get on the ship is make your reservations for shows. Make sure you make your specialty restaurant reseverations before you get on the ship!!
