Review summary

We were a group of 6. Usually it’s just the 2 of us. We met at times and went off on our own at other times.. You could use some tables pool side, it was confusing which was the kids pool. Solarium too hot when closed off, not necessary. Monitors needed for deck chairs with towels.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Went thru quickly and got on board early. You said noon but rooms weren’t ready til 1pm.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

Drinks were good, no happy hours except mimosa, which none of us drank were during the early afternoon . Food was great in dining room, windjammer was good. First ship I’ve been on that closes everything down. When it’s later at night and you’d like a pizza...there is no food anywhere. Should be til at least 11 pm.- 1am.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Fitness center good, mini golf fun but no score cards just pencils. Need more golf clubs. Bingo too expensive. $10 a game. You were suppose to give away a cruise but it ended up being a dollar amount that only covers one person. Very deceiving. It said win a cruise. Lousy shopping on board. I needed a couple of things, more than T-shirts but you had no women’s clothing. Forget the perfume and bring in some clothes. I know it’s a small ship.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

First comedian great, second one was ok. Shows were good and would be great if the band volume was turned down so you can hear the singers. David is the best and Micheal is very good too. The two lead girls... not so. They sound like screaming hens. Biggest mistake was never let a female sing Elvis songs. That show was brutal. Then David had his show and WOW what difference. He has terrific talent...why did you make him sing so high in the first show..

Cabin / Stateroom

Cabinet was very nice. Hubby was so happy to have a couch. There wasn’t much difference in size with the balcony room our cousins had. We were very pleased.
