Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

In main dining room, several times food did not have any flair or taste; buffet was just OK - nothing outstanding; specialty dining was excellent.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

DID NOT LIKE THE FACT THAT YOU NEEDED RESERVATIONS FOR SHOWS - VERY INCONVENIENT IDEA..... MANY PEOPLE WE MET COMPLAINED ABOUT THAT

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

in our case, no one went above and beyond. Cabin attendant was very good; dining room personnel sometimes not very friendly or accommodating.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Too much distance between staterooms and dining areas or other attractions

Falmouth, Jamaica

3 out of 5

Land tour we took was OK - however, did not like the fact that we were bothered at every stop to make purchases or asked for money. I would rather have stayed on the ship - not everyone who cruises is a shopper.... After so many cruises, you don't need to buy anything.
