Review summary

We would do this cruise again. It was a fun, friendly ship. We like the smaller ships and this didn't disappoint.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

We were in a suite, but we just walked on, no waiting at all.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

This was the first week of the new menu in the dining room. You now order dessert with your appetizer and entree. Some of the food was the same, but they had some new stuff too. No complaints. We ate lunch at the Park Cafe in the Solarium often, love the salads.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

We loved the solarium pool, stayed there a lot. We didn't use a lot of the other stuff. Activities were the usual stuff like Love and Marriage, Quest, etc. We don't do a lot of them, but I think they are fun.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

The comedians were good on the boat. The Celine Dion impersonator was also good. For a small ship we were happy.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

No issues at all. Our stateroom attendant was good, friendly and we enjoyed her. Our dining staff was also great. Bar staff was fine as well. If I had one complaint the roaming bar service in the Solarium was scarce, but the bar is a short walk away.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

It seemed like the ship could use a little refresher.

Cabin / Stateroom

First time in a mini-suite, loved it.
