Traveled with children

Pros: Excellent entertainment! Attended 3 shows which were fabulous. Ports were all super with great beaches. Enjoyed shore excursions. Food was very good but service haphazard with too many guests per waiter at the time we dined in My Time Dining. Cabins were very clean and ship was in great shape. Public spaces are very nice.

Cons: This summer vacation cruise was too packed with guests to be able to enjoy the public spaces. It was very full (6500 guests) with lots of kids. Often there did not seem to be enough staff to deal with so many guests. Lines for Guest Services, dining areas etc.

Other: We traveled with two grand children. They loved ice skating, carousel and kids pool area. Embarkation was very smooth. Disembarkation was lengthy. There were more very long lines and hauling bags back and forth in roped areas to get through Customs. Don't book a flight before noon!

Cabin Review

Interior Stateroom

Cabin Q

This was the smallest cabin we have ever had - it was only 140 sq feet. No drawers, no little table, one seat chair and small closet. Standard bathroom. It worked fine for myself and a 5 year old grandson, but would be cramped for two adults. We also had the cabin next to it - 14277. That cabin was larger and had drawers in the desk, a larger closet and a two seat sofa with a little table. 14277 would be fine for two adults. Both rooms were very quiet. Great location on the ship. Close to elevator/stairs. One floor up is kids pool area and two floors up is the Windjammer.
