Review summary

We enjoyed our cruise and the staff we personally dealt with was great. Our wait staff in dining deck 5, Vilfern and Charles, were amazing. They went above and beyond. I am gluten free so they made my selections available the day before and worked with the head waiters to make sure my meal was as I needed and wanted it to be. They treated our table very well and were fun and made our dining experience one we didn't want to miss. We enjoyed the Rbar on deck 4 and Micheal was the best bartender on the boat. His drinks were awesome but he had a great personality and charisma about him which made you want to go there for your drinks. The two mixologist classes were great also that he administered.

We missed not having a sky bar at the pool and to be honest the pool bar service left a lot to be desired. Most days, especially sea days, they didn't have enough staff to serve the crowd. It was disappointing as normally the sky bar ends up being our favorite. We enjoyed the excursions and booked on the boat or prior to the cruise this time and that was a good experience. The Cruise Director and the Activities Manager were so great...worked well together and did a great job of entertaining and making it all fun. Definitely our top two groups of directors we have seen on a cruise.
