We wanted to try a large ship and Escape caught our eyes. Very nice ship! Layout is easy to navigate and outdoor activities are excellent. Not so excited about the location of the casino - right in the middle of the ship. The smell of smoke is terrible - unbearable for anyone who suffer from respiratory illness. We walked outside or across on the deck above from the casino. The worst thing for us is most of the specialty restaurants are near the casino.

We did enjoy all the amenities of the ship. We wish we sail for another 7 days to truly enjoyed it. Love the trivia game - especially the star trek and star wars. The assistant cruise director was great. So, overall experience is good , but we wish it was great. We are looking forward to give it a try again or perhaps sailing on Breakaway or Getaway. But, our dearest friends recommended Epic. We just have to see.
