This was my 6th cruise having sailed before with Carnival, NCL and RCI. We arrived early to the port and were one of the first to get onto the ship. For the entirety of the cruise we never felt crowded, always found seating in all areas of the ship, which was nice. Our balcony room was awesome, lots of storage and plenty of space, they only thing better in comparison was that NCL has a separate shower stall and toilet which was nice for privacy, but we are married in our late 20s, so this doesn't bother us.

SHIP: Had lots of space, was very clean , modern and I can't say enough that the staff was incredible!!!! They really went out of their way to make sure you had great service and shared some laughs. We were celebrating my husband's birthday on the cruise and they did a great job with balloons outside our stateroom and a birthday cake the night of his birthday.

ACTIVITIES: There was always too much to do on the other cruise lines I've been on. This was my first time with HAL and they did have limited activities, however if you are looking to relax and do a few things you'll be fine. We only went to part of one show...still think NCL and RCI had the best entertainment, but if you are into cheesy mediocre shows like in Atlantic City and Vegas you'll like it. They casino was always packed at night, the club on the ship was crowded around 10, but after the shows you were stuck with drinking or hitting up the casino. They did have movies, but they were only shown in the afternoon, I wish they had these late night in the lounge. The culinary center was pretty cool, felt like you were at a cooking show...just wish there were more of these shows!
