Don't go on it until it has been overhauled and refurbished. You will be disappointed.

Always read agenda sheets for minute to minute update. Make sure the night before disembark meant you know EXACTLY where to meet. There was confusion with quite a few people on our cruise.

Skip the shopping talks.

Liked receiving the daily agenda the night before so we could plan what to do

You will rarely see a more classic decor on any cruise ship. The lido needs more seating for the volume of diners.

The interior were beautiful especially design of dining fixtures, lighting fixtures, paint colors, wood finishes. The interior state too was unremarkable and TV quite small.

Liked most of the ports except Samana. Thought that was awful. The ship was very cold in many areas. This was especially true of the Vista showroom. It was freezing. Also, we noticed many cut backs in many areas. Other cruises always had music going on and it was festive. This time, it wasn't

The ship needs a lot of work. It's very tired and worn out. Rust everywhere. The ship is suppose to go into dry dock soon.I just wish it had happened before we took the cruise.

Daily activity sheets were great but would prefer the entire itinerary earlier to plan the entire trip instead of daily.

Check your account on a regular basis to ensure that no additional costs have been added.

Make sure to go to Happy Hour on the ship. This gives a chance to meet new people while enjoying drinks, buy one, get a second for only a dollar.

Think about where you'll spend most of your time. We frequent the gym and being close is important.

The speciality restaurant are a great hidden treasure, tried the Italian, and the Pinnacle Steak House, both were well worth the cost. We went to dinner and lunch at the Pinnacle, the best value is Lunch.

There is an information session the day before done by Nadia. It is very well done. She is available for consultation during her desk hours.

Printed calendar of next days events and locations the day before. Appropriate PA system announcements.

We had the Explore 4 Beverage package and it was great. Some of food in Lido could have been better

Review the itinerary of all the ships going where you want to go. Verify that where they go is exactly where you want to go. Talk to lots of people who have traveled on these ships. Compare prices and all the details. Go on line for assistance. Do not rely on the liner company.

Good choice.
