Review summary

It is a fantastic ship. Our first cruise ever, disembarked today, and I am already missing it. The staff, the sea, the food, the drinks, the pools...

Embarkation

5 out of 5

I was very nervous before boarding, this was our first cruise. Did we have all the paperwork in order? Nothing to worry about, everything went well for the whole family. Walker and liquid nutrition came easily on board. Kind , patient and efficient staff.

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Wonderland was interesting ;) The "lobsterspoon" was very good. A fun experience. The youngest tasted food they thought they did not like. Brunch at The Mason Jar was great. The french toast is indescribably good. The chicken was good, but a little dry. But really large portions! Windjammer was great! Food from all over the world. And so many deserts. The "washy washy staff" was fantastic :) We did not eat at the main dining room... Park café was ok, and Johnny Rockets was great.

Nice stateroom. The balcony was bigger than expected. Great with connecting rooms. No noise from Windjammer! Very clean. Thanks James :)
