This was our first (and probably last) cruise. The ports were great, and the ship was beautiful, however the food was disappointing. We basically ate for fuel. It was hard to get a spot to soak up the sun on deck, and the pool area is really crowded and loud. The part that really turned us off was being nickeled and dimed every time we turned around. We paid $375 for a couples massage which was marginal and then had to sit through a whole spiel where they try to sell $700 worth of lotions. The whole trip felt like one of those time share scams, only we paid a lot of money for the hassle. This was a waste of money a lot of very hard earned money. They asked prior to travel if we were celebrating anything and we let them know it was our 25th anniversary; we got a "happy birthday" sign on our cabin door.
The cabin was comfortable, and the views were very nice. Getting on and off the ship was easy.
