It was a family cruise, with my husband, daughter, spouse and their 3 kids(9, 12, 14), to celebrate the New Year. The ship is beautiful, luxurious, cabins (9228 and 9230) are big, with a sofa that converts into a double bed, and one pull down bed. The balconies do not open to communicate. Bring your own shampoo, conditionner and shower gel if it is important for you : there is a dispensor of some kind of liquid in the shower, not sure what it is, but it washes everything....

Food was excellent, especially in the Tide Restaurant. Samir and Arel, our server and assistant server were always doing more than expected to make our meal a gastronomic experience! The Maitre D was also very present and helpful when needed.

The shows with the singers and dancers were very good, but only 2 in the week. Magician was also very interresting! The activities are good, but not opened long enough : slide opens only at 3PM and is closed at night. The climbing wall, about one hour before lunch and 2 hours late after noon... Mini-golf is always open and fun! Pool is 6'2" deep, and there are lots of chairs around it!

Cabin Review

Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

Cabin D1

Big, with a sofa that converts into a double bed, and one pull down bed. The balconies do not open to communicate. Bring your own shampoo, conditionner and shower gel if it is important for you : there is a dispensor of some kind of liquid in the shower, not sure what it is, but it washes everything....

Even if on deck plan you see stairs near this room, it is for personnel only. So this corridor is a "dead end", not a lot of circulation (good!). With the other stairs, you reach the Windjammer directly... also very good!
