Review summary

We had a Deluxe 2 Bedroom Penthouse, so - our rating is a little tained towards the 'excellent' side! Separate breakfast/lunch dining was great! Everything about this ship was great- only drawback (if I had to pick one) is the Italian Restaurant was so-so! Other than that - the service was outstanding and the ship was beautiful! This was a port intensive cruise, and not a ship intensive! So, with that being said - paradise was GREAT! Service was GREAT!!! This was my 22nd cruise (7+ days) - It's going to be hard to beat this one!!!! Wonderful Time - Great Cruise!!!!!!! Would highly recommend!

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
We ate in alternative restaurants all but one (1) night! However, buffet was average - tasty! The Italian alternative restaurant was 'iffy' - could have been better!

Entertainment

3 out of 5
Since we were on shore all day - after dinner, we were soooo tired - did not really get a chance to see much of the entertainment. What we did see was average to good!

Children's Programs

3 out of 5
We celebrated my girlfriends daughters 16th birthday - She went to the teen club, but there were no teens (or even noticeable children) on the cruise! No problem though!!!!
