Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Chops and Hooked were great! Windjammer tended to be pretty packed, not unexpected. Food was excellent. Had brunch at The Mason Jar immediately after boarding, very much enjoyed it!

Service and Staff

4 out of 5

Most of the staff was excellent. We had one minor situation which was resolved way above and beyond. Cruise director was really good and very helpful addressing our one service related problem.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

The ship is new and clean. Cabin was great! The main reason for 3-stars was that every morning at 0430 they were using a power washer… which was LOUD and woke us up each morning way too early. I probably should have complained but just never got around to it.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Ignoring the power washing issue, the cabin was fantastic. If I had a complaint it would be that the shower/tub was a bit too narrow and the shower would get the floor wet (a partial door and no curtain). It would be slick in spots as a result. Otherwise, the Jr. Suite was really nice.

Ship tip

Too much to do one 3 or 4 day cruise, so learn about what’s available on the ship. Prioritize what you want to do. Also, book shows asap when getting onboard, they sell out pretty fast.
