Review summary

We have been on many cruises...even Thanksgiving week and this trip was disappointing. Too many kids. Too many kids movies and events scheduled. The food was mediocre at best. The service was almost non-existent.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5

All the food was less appealing than prior cruises. The buffet was just a rerun of the day prior. The dining room was okay, but not fab. The pizza and burger stations were the only thing really edible.

Table service Botticelli Table 35 was good. The rest of the service throughout was non-existent, especially poolside service.

Ship tip

If you are drinkers - the booze package is well worth it, especially the discount on wine. On a side note - bring an alarm clock. The rooms are really dark and you can sleep the day away if you aren't careful.
