Review summary
The trip in whole was great but the average passenger was much older than we expected. Really loved the size of the ship and the number of passengers.Embarkation
One of the quickest boardings ever. Smooth.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Great experience in the main dinning room. The Lido Market was lacking in variety.
Onboard Activities
The activities were aimed more to the order passengers and wasn’t all that appealing to us. Spent a lot of time just relaxing poolside.
Entertainment
The entertainment overall was pretty good but limited considering the time we spent at sea. A couple of the show weren’t worth the time. We left one of the show just after it started.
Service and Staff
Our porter and waiters were great. And we got to know a lot of the bar staff really well.
Ship Quality
The ship overall was in good condition, but we did have an issue with our shower drain and it took 4 day and several requests to have it resolved.
Cabin / Stateroom
The size was good. Nice size bathroom. Verandah was great for those long sea days.
Ship tip
It would have been good to have access to an onboard laundry facility. The only option was to use their service which was pricey. We did use sick suds a couple days.

Ports of call
This port was pretty much the highlight of the ports. Great way to end our ports and head to sea.
Disembarkation
The only down side to disembarking is the chaos of searching for our luggage on the multiple conveyor belts and thousands of other luggage. They weren’t organized in any way.
