Review summary

This was a very nice cruise that we will recommend to others. Although Santorini was a highlight, the ship staff did not advise us of the long lines to move from dock to the city. The cruise staff should have better described the need for an early departure from the ship.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

There were lots of helpful staff and embarkation proceeded quickly.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The food was excellent with wonderful dining room staff. The Tempanyaki was also superb for both food and entertainment.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

I loved the rock-climbing wall and sampled the other activities. There was a good variety for every age group.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Liked the talented performers on the main stage but did not like "The Book" at all. It seemed to promote witchcraft

Children's Programs

We did not have children with us.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Jun was an excellent server in the main dining room, table 175. He should be commended on his service and attentiveness.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

It is a great new ship.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

We enjoyed the large balcony stateroom. It has a better layout and much more storage that others ships. Unfotunately, we were directly under a food servicing area so there was lots of annoying noise during the night. We will not book the top floor under the eating area again!!
