Review summary

I had an excellent vacation. I got to see California at an easy pace and did not feel rushed even though we covered so much. The ship was lovely and provided lots to do on your days at sea. Take advantage of the spa it is well worth it

I loved this cabin . The stateroom faced the back of the ship and was quite and private. Only one other cabin next to us. It was like sailing on a private yacht. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was tiny

Make sure you get to main show early. Enjoy all the extras that you get for free. International café on deck 5,
