Review summary

Really fun and different. Definitely not for everyone, but for good food and a relaxed, adult atmosphere, it’s a lot of fun.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Organized testing and quick embarkation as soon as results came in. The only folks who had to wait a long time were those who came earlier than their assigned time slots.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
Felt like speciality dining each night and was about the same quality. Each of the included dining options would cost $30-$60 on other lines. The other, informal dining options are great as well.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5
Other than fitness classes, the onboard entertainment felt sparse.

Thanks for your review and providing great info about this new cruiseline. It may not be for everyone, but I would like to try them out at some point in the future once the "new car smell" has faded.
