The ship is beautiful, the shows were excellent, but everyone in our group felt they had issues managing the quantity of people on this ship. Lines for activities, lines to get on crowded elevators, restaurants running out of food, delays during dinner... this was the overall theme with our cruise felt by our party of 18.

Entertainment and Activities: The AquaTheater Show Oasis of Dreams was a big highlight - a must see if you cruise on this ship! Come Fly With Me, an acrobatics show, was also good. Be sure to make reservations for any shows BEFORE you cruise- shows do have limited seating. Members of our group went to the adult Comedy show and found it hilarious, however, booking this in advance is a must as it was full when others tried to add reservations.

Many in our group also enjoyed the FlowRider, Rock Wall Climbing and Ice Skating. However, we never saw both Rock Walls open (the ship has 2) even though there were long lines. The ice skating was only offered on limited days / times and had long lines. My husband loves to run and he said the jogging track was tiny - a lot smaller than other ships.

Cabin Review

Grand Suite with Balcony

Cabin GS

Cabin: We (3 of us) stayed in Cabin 12654, a suite. We loved the room, it had ample space and an abundance of storage for the 3 of us. Full size bathroom with tub. There is a sofa that opened up to a bed which my teenage son slept on. Every night our cabin attendant would fix his bed, and every morning she would set it back up into a sofa. It worked out great. The cabin was quiet, the balcony had great views, and the location was not too far from the elevators and stairs. Having a suite, we had priority access to board and disembark the ship and therefore had no lines. Definitely a great perk. Also had access to a suite lounge and restaurant, however; we did not use it as much as others in our group were not in a suite and therefore did not have access to it.
