The two of us chose this cruise because it was a terrific all inclusive deal. We departed Hamilton Ontario airport (great airport, easy parking, no hassle) to Miami, transported to the ship, drinks pkg, all gratuities, internet pkg and flights all included and returned by transport to the airport and home.
The ship is a very nice vessel, I thought that the food in the main dining room was not as good as my previous cruises though. We utilized the buffet restaurant several times and found the food good there and a huge selection. Specialty restaurants were fully booked so we chose "the porch raw bar and seafood restaurant" for my birthday dinner. The $30.00 per person up-charge is a wee bit much in my mind, food is OK but no oysters (raw bar?) and the seafood tower is nice but almost too iced cold to have any taste. Small complaint - I let the ship know that a birthday was being celebrated (you get asked when filling in the pre-board online) but nothing was done, in the past we have had something put in the cabin.
The veranda cabin we had was nice and the steward (Bertolino) exceptional. Service in general was good all over the boat.
Kept incredibly clean, Bertolino got to know our in and outs and consequently we weren't bothered by him at all. Good sized shower and bathroom in general was a good size. Beds were comfortable. On demand movies available, free or pay per view.
Shopped.
