Review summary

We have been trying to make this trip happen for 1 1/2 years. Sharman made this one happen when our original cruise line went bankrupt. This was 4 siblings and spouces and we had a great time.

Embarkation

5 out of 5

Smooth and efficient.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The buffet had many vegetarian options and Chef Aaron made sure my dining room dinners were amazing

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

None of the above existed.

Entertainment

4 out of 5

The performers were good but the timing of the shows was not. They would have been better with one show at 8 after everyone finished 6pm dinner

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

The staff was above and beyond. Since a small ship it was nice to engage with the same staff. Friendly, professional and yet with a personality.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Everything was clean and since a small ship, and I had a fractured foot, it was great not to have miles from one end to the other.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Bed was very comfortable and plenty of space to unpack our stuff for the week.

Ship tip

Be prepared to relax.
