Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Most of the food throughout was the same everywhere just plated differently. Overall good

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Casino, pool, theaters were good. Star needs more pools other than main one.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

Performances were ok. Not spectacular, but entertainment value was good.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Larger suites and service was exceptional. Private butler was very nice touch.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Older and not as updated as newer ones. Pool and sports courts were very limited

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Great with separate bedroom

Ship tip

Enjoy it! Even the worst cruise experience is usually better than the best day at work.

Ports of call

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

4 out of 5

Very nice but didn’t see much other than old town area. Very scenic

Thumbs Up 1

Mazatlan, Mexico

3 out of 5

Older and more run down than Puerto Vallarta. Boardwalk was a nice area to walk for miles.

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

5 out of 5

This IS a really beautiful beach area. Tenders took us to shore and experience was nice. Not enough time there though.
