Review summary

Our cruise was shortened and port was cancelled due to the hurricane. A towel we ordered wasn’t in the room and they said they were sold out. Not sure how that works considering I purchased it ahead of time. This was my first cruise and it wasn’t the greatest first impression but definitely will go again, and hope for a better experience.

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Food was ok, but what do you expect at buffets. Speciality restaurant hooked was good. Our cruise was shortened and didn’t get to experience all the restaurants. Playmakers wings were also just ok. I heard great reviews and expected amazing and I have had much better. The little pizza spot wasn’t bad, great late night snack.

The shows were amazing! Loved the show Hiro, flight was really good as well. Did the comedy show and it was entertaining.

Children's Programs

Nice staff, like how they made us wipe the babies hands before entering. I felt comfortable and safe leaving my 1 year old there. I Wish I would’ve utilized it more. Now I know for next time.

Had room 10299, over looked the boardwalk. The only time it was noisy is when the shows played at the venue down below other than that it was great.
