Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The food was delicious every night at the dining area. We especially enjoyed the escargot appetizers every night and the crème brulee for dessert. The chef did a good job on the roasted rack of lamb and the braised lamb shank. We loved the risotto as well. The only thing stressful was having to choose from a menu filled with goodies. So much food too little stomach. The dining staff were very entertaining and helpful. We also had the privilege to be serve a special Filipino dish in one of the dinners. At the Wind Jammer buffet, it is my first time to have servers deliver drinks or asked if we needed anything else. It could use a little improvement such as made to order stir fry or a pasta bar. One thing I would also recommend was having a Chocolate Buffet event as I have experienced in my past cruises.

Onboard Activities

Love the dance classes.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

All the shows were very memorable. My favorite event was the Dream Works parade. I think that was magical and awesome seeing characters dance and parade. The energy of all performers in all of the shows was high. Love the Oasis of Dreams, Frozen in Time and Come Fly with Me. Mr. Tillman was very entertaining as well. The comedy bar performers were awesome, made me laugh till I dropped. Not recommended for sensitive people.

Service and Staff

Vincent did an excellent job in ensuring our cabin was clean and fresh everyday. Love the towel folded animals everyday.

Ship tip

Be prepared to loosen up, review your cruise compass everyday, get out and join the super fun activities. There is something for everyone. One thing I particularly liked that I have not seen in my past cruises was the Jacuzzis and pool were open 24 hours.
