We loved this ship it was amazing, no waiting times for anything even though there were over 4000 people on board. The food was fantastic even in the windjammer (Buffett) , so much selection to choose from. We would also sometimes just go to two70 & have a light breakfast & a coffee. The drinks package was well worth it as it even includes your specialty coffees which we enjoyed every day.

Entertainment
4 out of 5
The shows we saw were good, but we found that they were lacking in entertainment for adults to do during the day. Needed more things on during the day, especially sea days. Catered very much towards children
Children's Programs
Didn’t have children with us.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
The only problem we had with our cabin was our bed, it was soo hard, we like a firm mattress but this was like we were sleeping on the floor it was that hard. However our cabin steward was very helpful & put extra blankets on top of the mattress for us.
Ship tip
If your going to do any on board tours or specialty restaurants pre book as they booked out pretty fast.
Very boring. We did the hop on hop off bus tour around Auckland &:it was VERY BORING we have done a few of those tours in other countries & they have been good & informative, however this one was not. Would not recommend it.
The disembarkation was easy, however when we got off the ship the port baggage people lost our bags along with a few other people also. So then we missed our shuttle & then they paid for a taxi for us to the airport .
Thank you for your review, becoming more real now,the mind set of thinking the month after next,is a lot more appealing than I am sailing on Ovation next year,happy cruising xxxx
