Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food quality is a step up at specialty dining. Otherwise, food is the same at all other location( just presentation, service and quantity with unlimited in buffets). Alfredo is always a reliable choice!

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5

Outdoor pool and small wet pool Fitness center for adults Other activities were sad, very low attendance and staff lack enthusiasm to support

Entertainment

2 out of 5

Hit and miss

Service and Staff

2 out of 5

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Although new and beautiful, Not enough shade for outside seating, kept getting lost (flow can improve), generally clean but already seeing wear and tear

Cabin / Stateroom

2 out of 5

Forward interior cabins are full of noise due to entertainment from the arena. New ship problems: hallways to staterooms are way too narrow (walking for one); leaks in pipes; air conditioning controller in room not working,etc.

Ship tip

If you can afford, pay more for balcony room.
