My husband is in his 50's and I'm in my 40's. We wanted a getaway without kids and thought that would be the case sailing in January, but that wasn't so. We were surprised at how many kids were on board & it was noticeable they were there. This really isn't a bad thing, it was just surprising.

Stateroom: We booked a balcony cabin on the "bump" on deck 8 and would book the same room again & again. The room seemed fairly large and was extremely comfortable for 2 people. Our cabin steward was fantastic! Our room was always in top notch condition & her personality was wonderful. Very friendly, welcoming, and she always remembered our names. The best things about the stateroom was plenty of storage space & a shower door instead of a curtain. LOVED IT! I do however have 2 complaints. First, the closet.
