Review summary

Fantastic ship, service, and ports! I would cruise on this ship again, regardless of ports, and would even choose a cruise just to go back to Coco Cay, as we enjoyed it that much. Tons of fun!

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Very efficient.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Best ship we have been on, ever! Dining room and windjammer had good food.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
With spending 3 full days on the ship, we still did not have enough time to do everything the ship had to offer! It was fantastic for my 2 yo and 8 yo, they were never bored and there were ample things they both enjoyed. It was awesome to have more than just a small pool for my 2 yo in diapers - she had a water slide and splash area with toys that she really enjoyed.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Husband and son really enjoyed the water shows.

Children's Programs

Kids preferred to swim and stay with parents rather than do the kids clubs as this is a family vacation.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Fantastic service all around! Jhun and Argel were wonderful in the main dining room, and Tetyana always made sure our kids had paper and crayons to keep them occupied. My son even made friends with the lifeguards and looked forward to interacting with them every day.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Very clean!

Cabin / Stateroom
