I booked this cruise almost 2 years in advance in order to get cabin 8000. It was FANTASTIC. There is only one like it on the ship. It has two bedrooms and two bathrooms as well as a large living area and a long hall and tons of closet space (two desks but only one television) . The cruise itself wasn't the best. The food in the main dining room was so bad we quit going. Slow to arrive and just not very good. Some times the buffet was good other times it was difficult to find something to eat. I think they just want everyone to go to specialty restaurants. We even did a Galley tour/Bottomless Brunch on the last day for extra money. My husband got french toast. It was two pieces of bread. Nothing even decorating the plate. The menu said it came with bacon but he got nothing else. Everything seems to shut down around 8:45. There weren't many entertainment options other than a ton of trivia games. We watched a dance team from a local high school perform and saw a comedian. I learned to fold napkins. It's a small ship, I was surprised there wasn't even a sports court. The kids with us were 9, 12 & 14 and they weren't interested in the kids clubs because the 9 & 12 year olds wanted to hang out together and the 14 year old isn't interested in doing anything at all and would rather complain about how boring everything is than try something new. (No fault to the cruise line there). The crew was very friendly. If you just want to relax and not do very much on board it's perfect.

Cabin Review

Family Ocean View Stateroom

Cabin FF

The best cabin ever. It's HUGE and it isn't a suite (because there is no balcony). The location in the very front of the ship was only an issue when docking or leaving port (vibration) otherwise it was a wonderful experience. No cabin noises, nothing but peace and space.
