Review summary

FOR A SURPRISE BIRTHDAY GIFT FROM HUSBAND THIS WAS NICE, BUT WE DON'T THINK WE WILL BE CRUISING WITH THEM AGAIN.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
Well we were not happy with the food, their lettuce was never fresh, we had to always ask for different lettuce than they had out because it was always brown.Sometimes our food would be cold that should have been HOT, these are little things but they add up. Also a person should not have to pay a cover charge any place on the ship, there specialty restaurants are extra, what's the point of taking a cruise to enjoy everything offered on the ship, If I still have to PAY MORE MONEY to have a steak. Aside from the fact that reservations are HARD TO GET. If your not an ice tea person, served in tiny little cups, than you are out of luck because soda's are it or of course alcoholic beverages. No lemonade or fruit punch.

everyone was very nice

Ship Quality

3 out of 5
We thought the ship was ok, we did think if your going to have folk painting and doing work, it should be done when docked and most of your passengers are off the ship, not when people are trying to sun bathe or just read a book on deck, they don't want to smell paint.

The quality of some of the shops is not good. We bought 2 pairs of sun glasses that broke into several pieces before we could get to the next port. BUYER BEWARE!
