This was my first time cruising... Overall it was a great experience. There were pros and cons but the pros definitely outweighed the cons.. We had faster to the fun so we had priority boarding and debarkation both went very smooth. I highly recommend faster to the fun. I'm glad I purchased it. Definitely worth the money and made embarkation and debarkation stress free.

The ship was really nice. I'd never cruised before so I wasn't real sure what to expect. The ship looked huge while sitting in port. Once I was onboard I felt there were parts of the ship that seemed a little small. The ship was very east to navigate around. Being a first time cruiser that was very important to me. I didn't want to be wandering all over trying to find my way around. The decor of the ship seemed on the tacky side in my opinion. Too artsy for me. I really liked the adult serenity, a very relaxing spot on the ship with no screaming kids. Only con was it stayed very full which made seating limited. I do wish they would heat the pools better. The water was too cold for swimming. The hottubs were nice but I always found my bikini bottoms full of sand after being in there...lol. I found that odd.

I upgraded to an ocean suite and it was GREAT! Very roomy with a nice large balcony. I spent many hours on that balcony enjoying the peace n quiet and the view. Unfortunately I had one neighbor that was extremely noisy. I was awakened several times during each night to screaming children, banging and slamming of their balcony door. I was tempted to complain to guest service but figured not much could be done. Other than that it was a great room. Read more
