Review summary

Ship was comfortable and smooth; food was very good;

Embarkation

Very fast and easy; great that they picked up our bags as we exited the taxi and they soon appeared in our room. The check-in using facial recognition was slick and fast.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Overall, most food was excellent and even the least favorable were still good for my taste

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Enjoyed the educational talks; exercise gym was easy to use

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Dance group was OK; second show was better than the first show. Singers were good, but being an older senior citizen, the music was more for a newer generation. The comedian was very good

Children's Programs

No children with us; a 16 yr old hardly counts

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Nearly all were friendly and didn't goof around; seemed serious about doing a good job

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Ship was well maintained; mostly easy to move around

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Nice size; comfortable for 3 people with adequate storage. Double sink was great
