Beautiful ship with first class service. The ship itself is in pristine condition and very clean. Our stateroom ( deck 7 ) was well serviced, clean and the balcony was great for having a glass of wine after a long day. We ate in the MDR every evening and whilst the menu appeared to have been " dumbed down " a little everything was good, tasty and well presented. We visited the theatre on 3 nights and the entertainment was good. We only used one ship excursion preferring to do our own thing. Most people we spoke to during the cruise enjoyed the ship excursions but found them a little pricey. We started our cruise just after the start of the new school year so apart from a few infants the trip was child free, whilst we love kids it was great to cruise almost "adults only". Would we cruise with this ship again ? You bet, in fact we have booked for a Caribbean cruise next March. Nothing in this world is perfect but this in our opinion is as close as you can get.
