Review summary

Relaxing itinerary with two sea days and most excursions not meeting before 9:15. Live entertainment was not as good as on past cruises with the exception of Rock You Tonight. Would like to see more quality live entertainment.

Embarkation

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

La Cucina was the standout. Main dining was hit or miss. Sometimes service was extremely slow and sometimes up to par.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Fitness center good.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Showdown (one of the two production cast shows) should be shutdown. It was truly awful. Rock You Tonight however was fantastic.

Children's Programs

No kids

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Room steward was the worst we ever had. Cleaning was mediocre and we named a long black hair that stayed on our bathroom wall as it was there for many days. (Neither of us have black or long hair). She also failed to distribute important information like the disembarkation times and time change.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Design is decent and we saw continuous cleaning—even the walls got washed regularly

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Comfortable cabin.
