I read a lot of reviews before we went on the cruise and I would like to ask those people what ship they went on? This was a fantastic cruise ship. Some of the nicest staff on the sea. In case you wonder if this was my first cruise, nope it was about my 7th. We have been on Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, Princess and Carnival.
This ship was clean, beautiful and fun. The food was really great much better than the last Royal Caribbean we were on. Staff was terrific and entertainment was really nice. Their production shows were not up to their normal excellence, but the main liners were really great! I would really like to try this ship again, we were on a spring break cruise and there were 1000 kids on the ship. But even with that many kids this ship really never feels small. They could use a few more things to do around the ship during sea days, but that said I never even had a chance to see the whole ship. Same old stuff in the shops, although the promenade was really a fun and happening area on the ship.
Elevators worked well and we never waited that long for anything. Theater has plenty of seats. As do the dining rooms and the buffet areas. Actually even has lots of pool area seating and I never had problems finding a seat anywhere. Tours were usual and customary we did not try any of the new stuff since we were a group of 6 and really different tastes in tours.
