Review summary

Ship was beautiful, clean and was laid out nicely. Food was delicious and you could have whatever you wanted and as much as you wanted. The dining experience was not a "FUN" as the Carnival ship we were on, but the dining staff were exceptional. The staff was nice and helpful except for the medical area which was lacking. Make sure you bring your own medical supplies, cuz there is NO one around for assistance. My son ripped off his toenail on the flowrider and they did not even provide bandaids or antibiodic cream for him even though they did an incident report.

Entertainment

Poor ! Not enough for 15-17 year old teens at night. All shows had to have reservations which you couldn't get once on board cuz they were full. Not enought night life, night club was small and full of 18 and 20 year olds, then there was a latin nightclub, but no other choices really. A couple of nights they had another area but it was packed. No activities during day, no entertainment during day except Bingo.

beds should be against the back wall not as soon as you walk into the room. They are very comfortable though!
