Review summary

From the moment we checked in at the port to the time we left the ship to come home we had a great experience. I would have given it 5 stars, but the smoking in the common areas was a little disturbing. I can't believe that people still smoke indoors anymore. Besides that the rest of the trip was awesome. The boat was immaculate, the staff were incredibly friendly. Because we had a suite, the amenities were extremely appreciared. The butler and private concierge were very helpful. The daily breakfast in Cagney's Steakhouse was delicious. I highly reccomend splurging for the upcharge dining venues. I had the best Chillean sea bass ever while on this cruise. The all inclusive liquor with call brands really made it enjoyable. And surprisingly there was always bartenders and hosts waiting to take drink orders. Finally, the entertainment was also very good, especially the comedian. The cruise director did a great job of getting the guests involved. Highly reccomend this trip for anyone looking for a relaxing long weekend.
