Review summary

Our cruise was wonderful and relaxing! Outstanding food, music and shows. The employees were exceptional and made our getaway a success.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
This was the fastest embarkation of my 15 cruises. So fast to get through the lines and security area. We were on the ship in less than 10 minutes

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The ship’s food was fabulous in the MDR, Windjammer buffet and the Park cafe. I have many food allergies and the chefs and waiters went above and beyond to keep me happily fed and safe.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
I love walking on the track every morning and also my wife and I loved laying out at the pool every day. We also watched several movies in the theatre and at the pool deck.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
We enjoyed the different entertainers on the ship as they had many different types. Also the dance teaching classes were cool.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
EVERY employee on this ship went above and beyond to provide an wonderful experience. Kailass, head waiter in the MDR , was excellent and took great care of my wife and I. Shree was our attendant in room 4545, was great and did a wonderful job keeping our stateroom spotless.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The Serenade is a beautiful ship and is truly exceptional! Every part of the ship was clean, safe and beautiful. The crew was always cleaning to provide a great voyage. Very easy to get around and find any area within minutes.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our first time doing an interior cabin and it was a wonderful experience. The best sleep that I ever had on any cruise. It was 10 rooms down from the Centrum area where there was non stop entertainment which was very loud. Once we went into our room, it was total quietness and darkness. I’m hooked on that cabin from now on!

Ship tip

Enjoy the beauty of this older ship. Incredible employees who provide a wonderful experience for all.

Disembarkation

5 out of 5
Excellent! We were through customs and in our car with 12 minutes- our fastest experience ever.
