In 2013 I had done a trip to New Zealand and thought nothing could beat this, I was wrong. These ports and excursions with our friends was out of this world. Best trip ever.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
The lines were very long and VERY slow to check in, this was my only complaint for the entire cruise. Getting off the ship at the end of the trip was a breeze.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
We used the main dining room for the evening and usually the Park Café area for a light breakfast. Next time I would choose an earlier dining time, 8:30 p.m. was a bit late.
Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
The entertainment and activities were plentiful.
Entertainment
5 out of 5
Really enjoyed the entertainment, I would have liked for them to repeat some of the shows in some cases I missed it and then it was never repeated.
Service and Staff
5 out of 5
Our room steward, Antonio, was excellent and our waiters Kallydean and Mohammed were also excellent. I have to commend these people for knowing more than one language.
Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Well maintained the stairways including the rails and glass were always being cleaned. The public bathrooms were spotless.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
My first long cruise so now I feel like I'd never be able to take anything less than a balcony. We used it often to just sit and look, have a drink and several meals on the balcony. The room was always kept tidy, our steward Antonio was excellent.
Ship tip
I was told this is considered a small ship, personally I would not like to be on a larger ship. It was easy to find others in our group and the location of our room 7598 was mid ship and was a perfect location.
VERY nice cruise itinerary but I firmly believe what made this cruise better than the 2013 cruise was your traveling companions. You posted nice group pictures and you all look so happy together. I hope you get to repeat and experience another "best trip ever".
