EMBARKATION: VERY efficient! We walked in (about 12:30) and were on the ship within 10 minutes. Our bags were delivered quickly and were at our room when we returned from lunch.

DINING: We had the late seating in the traditional dining room. The service was good but I will choose early seating on my next cruise. We were eating until 10:00 every night and that was a little late for me. We also ate breakfast and lunch in the Palm dining room which was very nice with good food choices and quick service. The buffets were typical and always crowded so we rarely went there to eat. The grill had hamburgers, hot dogs and chicken and the pizza stand had the BEST pizza. A lot of good choices whether we were on the go or wanted a leisurely meal.

CABIN: We were in a mini-suite on Dolphin and found it to be very comfortable. The balcony was nice even though it had no cover. We would have liked the mini-suite with the Caribe deck balcony which is half covered. Our cabin steward was very good after the first day when I talked to him about our cabin still not being cleaned at 2:30. From the second day forward, our cabin was cleaned when we returned from breakfast. Read more
