EMBARKATION & DECOR : We arrived at the Pier around 11:00. It was very busy with several other ships departing the same day. Once inside the building, it went very quickly. We were on the ship within 15 minutes. Of course the first thing we noticed was the pink decor... Lots of circles and pink, but frankly, who cares? All the common areas looked great and everything looked brand new and clean.

CABIN: We were in cabin #1010, an inside spa stateroom. One complaint I have... When we first got to our room, it had not been cleaned well. The counters were dirty and I found a bra and pills left in the drawers...Yakkkk. After this though, we had great service. The location on the ship was great. We could walk 2 cabins down and be outside in the front of the ship. We had great views from there. We were right below the spa.... Which was a little problem. Around 2 in the morning, they emptied the Thalasso pool and scrubbed it. It felt like they were moving furnitures over our head. After a few nights, I went up to see what was going on and realized what that's what they were doing. Wished I had spoken up earlier in the week.

FOOD: The food was excellent. Desserts were the best. Great Creme Brulee, Bitter and Blanc... We ate all dinners in the dining room and loved every meal we had. Lobster tail was great, steaks, pasta, all wonderful. The buffet was okay. I loved the Indian food at the back of the boat. The Rotisserie was also very good. There was an afternoon chocolate buffet that we really enjoyed.
