Review summary
I wish this would have been a better experience as we looked forward to it for a year. Perhaps had our agent not been useless and we would have gone into it more prepared, it would have been better as far as our attitude goes. Nice enough and probably GREAT for a first time cruiser or a cruiser who has never sailed on a better quality line.Embarkation
It was VERY unceremonious. Being pointed to an elevator doesn't make you feel super welcome.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Selections were underwhelming, many flavorless, and premium offerings are standard on other liners.
Onboard Activities
THIS was actually fantastic! For the size of the boat, the options were great!
Entertainment
This was MOSTLY really good. I thought the Billboard performers could have been better but they were enjoyed by many.
Service and Staff
Our room attendant was AMAZING but waiters were pretty unengaged.
Ship Quality
Very well maintained.
Cabin / Stateroom
Only a 4 because the verandah could have used a can of paint or two.
Ship tip
Don't set your expectations in comparison to other liners.
