Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Our waiters Alaeddine and Ashraad at table 300 went out of their way to please us and we were 8 people every night. Our room attendant James was always asking about our comfort and well-being ready to please us.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship has an easy layout to follow with plenty of fast elevators. The ship is very clean as well as the public restrooms. Staff were cleaning the outside and painting while we were in port.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Our cabin was kept spotlessly clean as well as the bathroom. This is an ocean view cabin with nice size square window on deck four, was always very quiet though it was just outside main centrum where there was always something going on.
