Review summary
We are so glad we are on this ship with so many days at sea first before two port visits in Spain ending in Barcelona. This is by far our best and biggest ship so far (22) and although there are close to 6000+ passengers and 2000+ crew there is so much room to do things without it seeming too busy. First our room on deck 9 is really nice with an extra-large sofa which makes it seem bigger. The lanai is also perfect with a great view looking straight down at the water. This also is our best ever bathroom with a real shower door that closes tightly and the bathroom has a classy look about it with plenty of storage. While they have a great promenade area about a block long with so many places to just hang out with free snacks and pizza all day and people watching. There are also two other areas just as big with a large garden central park atmosphere and a winding walk-way with lots of restaurants and sitting areas. The second one is adult and kid friendly Aqua Theater with a giant merry-go-round and large 51 foot high diving pool for fantastic acrobatics shows and outdoor movies. There are apparently 500 young kids on the ship but you would never know it. I see a lot of little things the ships are doing now since Covid to save money. Today was our dress up night where they used to call lobster night. No more free lobster. You can still get lobster at $16.99 on the old lobster night or anytime at $25.99. No big deal we just don't need a lobster. Overall, their main dining is spacious and well designed. It's 3 floors high and we have a nice two-seater looking down on the two floors below. The staff was all very professional and friendly and also seems more diverse that other ships which is nice.Embarkation
