Review summary

I’ve always wanted to do a cruise I’m glad I got to experience it but it was just so crowded you could never get a lounge chair, I don’t think I sat in one the whole week they were always taken. It was such a beautiful ship , clean, staff was always so friendly and I could meet them once and they knew my name the rest of the week

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Ship experiences

All the food was good, nice to eat in the dining room once in awhile as they give smaller portions and I tend to put more on my plate at the buffets

My daughter really didn’t use these, she met up with other kids her age on the ship and they pretty much hung out at the pizza place or the track

Finding a deck chair around the pool on CDs is tough go the deck above I would not want to sit in that crowd of people sit above them and people watch I love the cruise

Next time try the deck right above the pools for a lounge chair, they’re always free. And of course on port days the pools are empty in the am into the afternoon.
