Review summary

THIS CRUISE WAS "A" NUMBER 1. THE CREW WAS COMPETENT AND VERY FRIENDLY . ALL OF THE EVENTS WERE DONE WELL. THE RESTAURANTS WERE VERY VERY GOOD. FOOD WAS EXCEPTIONAL. PORTS OF CALL WERE FANTASTIC BUT NOT LONG ENOUGH TO REALLY GET TO KNOW THE PEOPLE OR AREA.. WE DID NOT THINK THAT THE SURCHARGE RESTAURANTS WERE WORTH THE TROUBLE. IF I PAY THE SURCHARGE I HAVE TO PAY AN ADDITIONAL $25.00 FOR A STEAK OR LOBSTER. THATS NOT MEALS INCLUDED. THE VERSAILLES AND AQUA RESTARANTS WERE VERY VERY GOOD WITH FRIENDLY PERSONEL FROM THE HOSTESSES TO THE WAITERS & WAITRESSES. TRATORRIA NEEDS A RESERVATION AND THAT WAS VERY TASTY. ALL & ALL IT WAS A GREAT CRUISE EXCEPT FOR THE DISEMBARKATION ,TO LONG IN LINES NOT EFFECTIVELY DONE.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
VERSILLES, AQUA, BLUE LAGOON, MARKET PLACE AND OTHER OPEN RESTAURANTS WERE VERY VERY GOOD. THE SURCHARGE RESTAURANTS WERE NOT WORTH THE FEE ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE TO PAY MORE FOR CERTAIN FOOD. THATS CALLED A RIP OFF. FREE DINING IS FREE.

Entertainment

ALL SHOWS AND ENTERTAINMENT WERE VERY VERY GOOD. THE STARDUST THEATER SHOWS WERE VERY GOOD AND THE ENTERTAINMENT DIRECTOR WAS VERY VERY WELL QUALIFIED AND FUNNY..
