Review summary

The ship was beautiful and clean, easy to find your way around. Stateroom furnishings were a little worn, but not too bad. Public areas very new looking and nicely decorated.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Food included in fare was surprisingly good. One specialty restaurant (Shogun/Sushi) was excellent. La Trattoria and Le Bistro were not worth the extra charge.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Great options, we just wished for a movie theater at night. Movies were shown in the afternoon in a conference room, but we were busy during the day.

Children's Programs

3 out of 5
Our teenage boys did not want to try many of the activities. Many sporting events looked crowded to them.

Service and Staff

3 out of 5
Staff were mostly friendly, some were less so. We asked steward for things that we sometimes got and sometimes didn't, although he was always pleasant.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Ship appeared newly refurbished, except in staterooms. Very nice.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5
Room furnishings were not great, but acceptable. Bathroom and stateroom were both roomier than I had expected.

Ports of call

King's Wharf, Bermuda

5 out of 5
Bonefish Restaurant's food was excellent, although expensive (like everywhere in Bermuda.) Snorkel Park was a great place to walk to from the ship and take a swim in the ocean. We did that one morning when we had a shore excursion booked for the afternoon.
Don't Miss: Bermuda glass-blowing works -- gorgeous things!!! Did some Christmas shopping early!
