Review summary

Great! Was my first cruise and as someone who prefers active things, the rock wall, volleyball, and fitness center were a huge plus. The track around the deck is awesome too! Food was great overall, with some being absolutely amazing.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Easy, clear, fast

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Coffee, food, dinners and alcoholic drinks were good. A larger beer selection would have been nice and most of the food at dinner was great, some being absolutely wonderful. Eggs in the windjammer were watery sometimes, but the omelets were amazing.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Fitness center was great. Hot tubs great. Rock climbing was awesome but they have a lot of times meant for younger kids only which I found frustrating as the kids can climb during open hours, but adults can not climb during the kid hours.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Phenomenal, music, clubs, silent disco, performances, shows were all awesome
