Review summary

This cruise is for a more liberal state of mind. Everyone was kind but it definitely pushed our comfort level.

Embarkation

4 out of 5

Easiest embarkation ever

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5

Food choices were limited, you are restricted on times to eat, food was not as good as other cruises. Alcohol was good and plentiful.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

Very few shows, space was too small for shows which caused limited viewing. Not enough show time options. Limited free activities. Pools and hot tubs were overcrowded as usual on a cruise.

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Performers were good from what I could see.

Children's Programs

No children on board

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

Everyone was nice, service was good, and room stewards were attentive and helpful. Getting food in the galley was confusing.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5

Layout was okay, could have used more directional signs, everything was clean

Cabin / Stateroom

Cabin exceeded expectations!!

Ship tip

Come with an open mind and a thick wallet.
