Excellent cruise lots of things to see and do. Do not expect a party atmosphere which is what we wanted. The ship is clean and well managed. The cabins are a good size and always kept clean. The staff is exceptional.
Embarkation

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Food was very good with a nice variety. The steak at Prime 7 on our first visit was without taste. We mentioned this and we were given another reservation immediately and were directed to another cut of meat which was excellent. Buffets were ample, selections fine.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
The onboard activities were just ok. The older group (67-80) probably enjoyed them more than the 45-65 age group and below. The pool was adequate. The evening buffet at the pool was a very nicely done event. The pool overall was kept clean and tidy with very excellent pool service for drinks and food.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Shows were just ok. The lounges were fine with decent entertainment. This is not a "party boat" which is good. That fact keeps things a bit lower key which is nice for a vacation vs. party time. However, the shows could be modernized and brought up a level or two.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
The service and staff were exceptional across the board. Very personable, remembered our names and our preferences. If there were ten stars, I would award a full ten!
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Well maintained and kept very clean.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
The cabin was a good size with a beautiful deck outside. The living area and sleeping area were just fine for size. The shower could have been a bit larger, but realize that there are space constraints on a ship so - overall just fine. The cabin was kept clean. I would suggest that there would be more outlets and the availability of additional adapters.
Ship tip
Do not overpack. Expect the possibility for an older demographic. If shows and performances are your thing, look very closely at what is offered. If a nice relaxing and fun time with great shore excursions are on the ticket - it is a wonderful ship.
Always a fun time - if it is your first visit, it is just wonderful. For second or more visits, there are things to do and see. The cars at the casino are always a blast to see, and people watching is good.
What do you mean by party atmosphere? I’m guessing you are quite young? I and my fellow guests are in their 60’s. We like a bit of music in the evening and maybe a bit of dancing too. Is this available?
