Our first cruise.

Dining: The most incredible part of our cruise was the food in the main dining room - Windows. The menu was varied nightly with every entree and appetizer a food connoisseurs delight. These meals would easily go for $100 - $150 head in any restaurant. I cant say enough about this restaurant. We booked meals in 2 other upcharge restaurants on the ship (French and Steak) but canceled once we realized we were eating the best of the best all inclusive! As far as the rest of the cruise it was very nice. The ship just came out of a 3 week dry dock with refurbed beds, carpets etc. That was really nice.

Rooms: We were not used to the compact room size on vacations (2 adults and 1 pretty big 17 year old) but that's to be expected on a ship. We stayed in a balcony room so that made a small difference in size but also gave the feeling of extra space but probably not worth double the inside stateroom. Staff: A very accommodating and service oriented staff made you feel as though you were their #1 concern (as it should be). The staff worked tirelessly throughout our trip and never did I see an idle moment. We asked for and received a foam mattress topper and I would recommend it for a softer bed. Read more
