Review summary

I really enjoy Ms Z going back Jan 3 2020. Since I am a senior I do enjoy an older crowd but the kids seemed happy swimming and playing. Again I must say the Crew from the Captain down were all great. Quck story I was on Buffet Line Captain was in front of me and in front of him was a man in wheelchair. The man was handed hot soup which almost spilled no servers around to help so guess what the Captain helped him to his table and made his day.

Embarkation

Computer snag boarding delayed and tedious-just a fluke I hope

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

Ate only at Buffet and Caneletto. Buffet food wa ok, Always love Caneletto visit every cruise. You have to stand on line on Holland Ships to be served. My husband likes this I do not. Why can't they have a small part of the buffet self service. I for one will take on the germs.

Onboard Activities

No activities really. I walked a lot. Thank God for the casino. Trivia is not me. They did have talks with the Chef and Hotel dirctor etc which were fun.
