Review summary

Princess Prizes wasn't working, had a horrible time making specialty dining reservations, casual dining was a joke with one restaurant (out of 2) serving food, entertainment venues too small for the size of ship, dome show only 1 night which was ridiculous for the amount of people onboard and the small venue, everything was always 5-10 minutes late, didn't mind being served buffet food just wish there were actual servers available.

Embarkation

2 out of 5

disorganized; only 1 line, no prioirty boarding

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5

most of the food was good, buffet wasn't great, lack of servers, some dining venues weren't serving food

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

a lot of activities were centered around sales, the pools were fine but needed steps or better ladders

Entertainment

2 out of 5

too small of a venue for shows to accomodate people on the ship, dome show only played 1 night out of 5 meaning about 4500 people missed it entirely

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

staff was excellent

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

i thought there were many confusing routes to areas of the ship that should have been better designed but it was clean and well maintained

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

upgraded to sanctuary club due to changes but they didn't come through on the perks that were supposed to be included (that we paid for)

Ship tip

don't go
