Quantum of the Seas

12 Night Southern Caribbean (Cape Liberty Roundtrip)

Sail date: April 12, 2015

Ship: Quantum of the Seas

Cabin type: Balcony

Cabin number: 12542

Review summary

Good cruise - not sure about the dining rooms vs a main dining room. But we were never turned away from a restaurant due to no reservation, though we do eat early (6-6:30).

Bugs me that they reserve so much prime space around the main pool for smokers. If you want to get out of the sun for awhile you have to scrounge. Half or one side would be ample.

butter was sour one night, bread sticks soggy another

Onboard Activities

could have used a seminar or some such for the three return sea days.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Mama Mia great, other entertainment while top notch, too modern for my taste. Give me a good old-fashioned musical.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Wondering what the glass shower stalls are coated with or made of. They never showed spots, soap scum, just clear and clean.

Ship tip

Didn't need to book meals on-line since we eat early.
