Review summary

Every vacation/cruise has areas for improvement. This one is no different, but I'd book it again in a heartbeat if there was an itinerary that I liked. We booked another cruise while on this ship, so that tells you that we really enjoyed what we got with this one! Also, find others on your same cruise on a Facebook group. We met many new folks online first, and then in person at a FB group meet and greet at the beginning of the cruise. It was nice to know a bunch of new people and have some familiar faces around the ship and on excursions.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
This is probably the one area where I have significant complaints about this cruise. With exception of Chops, the food was mediocre at best. Drinks were OK, but fairly inconsistent with regards to how much liquor was pour per drink but probably inline with non-cruise ship bars.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Lots to do and have fun with. Flowrider, mini golf, shopping, bars, casino, aqua theater (awesome to watch shows and movies at).

Entertainment

4 out of 5
The only reason I don't give this 5 stars is because of Cats. Just plain awful.

Children's Programs

Did not use.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
For the most part, our service was excellent. The only exception was our room attendant. He just seemed to be new and learning on the go. That said though, he was always responsive to us.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5
I'm a huge fan on cleanliness and details. There were some rust spots and areas needing painting. Our balcony glass could have been much cleaner as well.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
The usual balcony cabin with a king bed. Always nice to have a door to open out to the balcony.

Ship tip

Always enjoy the walk from FWD to AFT and vice versa via Desk 16! :)
