Review summary

Being a short relocation cruise, it seemed a bit un-organized and un-polished. Our room steward was fantastic. Food was good and most of the service was great. Entertainment of the boat was top notch, activities were just ok. The pools were fantastic! I did feel like the public restrooms looked run down and dingy. The whole boat had more engine vibration than I have experienced on other cruises. I don’t care for elegant dining much. We didn’t have any elegant nights but I know they would have preferred we dress nicely for the dining room. I don’t go on vacation to spend my time dressing uncomfortably. I would prefer to just come as I am. (As long as it is not in swimwear)

The cabin was nice enough. Location had a lot of vibration from the engines and the port holes were just ok. I prefer a larger window at the side of the boat. The room was big, lots of storage space. Shower and bathroom are small. Beds were really comfortable but on the soft side.
