This was a great way to celebrate our 25th anniversary. The only real complaint that I had was the constant feeling that we were being "up-sold" to spend extra money for things - "Specialty" coffee was another $2-3. "Specialty" restaurants were extra. Most of the fitness center classes were extra. Extra charge to gamble in the casino and charge it to our cabin. Etc. However, all that being said, we're really looking forward to the next cruise!
Embarkation
4 out of 5
Even though we didn't have our luggage tags pre-printed, the experience as a whole was quick and efficient. One issue was that at least 3 "check-in" people, their system crashed and they could not print out our IDs. That cause a 15-20 minute delay getting aboard the ship.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We only eat fish and vegetarian. There was ample offerings each and every meal for our dietary needs. And the food was really very good! There was only one dish which we really didn't like - and the staff quickly engaged the chef to provide feedback.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
The included on-board activities were OK. We didn't really use them; as anything beyond the very basic was an additional fee.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
We really enjoyed the shows. Maybe they were a little too sexual at times; and there was one which depicted domestic abuse - but we really enjoyed the acrobats.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Simply superb. Seemingly less "glamorous" than the entertainment and activity staff - the service staff was phenomenal and really made us feel at home!
Ship Quality

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
Large, comfortable - and who's gonna argue with a balcony! Our support staff kept it very clean and the towel animals each nice were awesome!
Ship tip
Don't overpack; and be prepared to be "up-sold" on almost every activity.
