Review summary

the weather was bad and can't be helped. With four days at sea it would have been nice to have more activities offered on those days. Could use better entertainment and more shows offered. I had been on two other cruises with other cruise lines and was confident entertainment would be wonderful. Wait staff was GREAT and made te trip more enjoyable.

Ship tip

Enjoyed all staff especially Lido deck. It was nice to have tacos and burgers around the pool for something different at lunch. Loved Happy Hour for drinks and appetizers.
