Beautiful ship and highly recommend for first time travelers or seasoned travelers. Went with daughter and family with young children. Something for everyone. Would definitely sail on this ship again.
Public areas were very spacious and well laid out. Had a walk around promenade deck. Beautiful solarium pool and large main pool.Casino was large and something for everyone.Acres of glass with two story dining room. Seven deck high atrium with two glass elevators, a most beautiful area on the ship.
Food excellent with good choice of food. Service excellent with friendly waiter and assistant. The Windjammer cafe had wide choice of food and beautiful view over looking front of ship. The head waiter was also very attentive and made dining more pleasurable. Celebrated several family special occasions.
Had a balcony cabin, which was very spacious with excellent storage space, full size couch that could be made into a double bed for children. Balcony was large enough for two chairs and small table. Cabin was very quiet. Bathroom was well laid out, but shower was very compact. Room steward was very attentive.
Excellent showroom with good sight lines. Good shows, but music was much too loud. Cruise staff very friendly and helpful. Information desk open at all hours.
Ship had full range of activities for all ages. The children were occupied during the day and evening. On shore they went snorkeling for the first time and were excited about it. Stopped at Labadee, San Juan, St. Thomas and Coco Cay. Spacious health club with full facilities.
Fellow passengers were from all the world with 47 different nationalities on board. A good mix of young and older passengers. Did not get to know other passengers, because of traveling with the family we stayed much to ourselves.Plenty of space for quiet times, or as active as you would want
