This is a beautiful, well maintained ship with a very polite, exceptionally nice crew, The layout of the ship is great, the live music plentiful and good. Great size (not too big but lots of stuff to do on board while at sea)

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Considering the ship produces 15,000 meals a day they are to be commended. This is not "gourmet" dining but the options, crew (especially the dining room staff) and availabilty make it top notch

Entertainment

Kids club needs work but otherwise lots to do with good variety
