We booked this cruise (our 18th) because it was a great value and a brand new ship. After I booked it, I started reading the reviews and was a little nervous about having chosen this cruise. All I can say is we had a great time and didn't not encounter any of the things which were negativity written about by other passengers.
We thought the food was good. Especially in the main dining room. I did not have one thing that I did not like. People complained that the Market Place at breakfast and lunch did not have enough variety. I had a different roastisery everyday which was delicious. And had a different breakfast everyday too--eggs benedict, omlettes, fresh fruit, waffles, french toast etc. Yes, they have hot dogs and hamburgers everyday, but so many other choices as well. And BTW, the hamburgers and french fries were tasty. We had the Fantasia package which gave us all the free wine, beer, and sodas we wanted. Plus, bottled water which is always a big expenses for us on a ship. Additionally, we each had 12 drink coupons for things like blender drinks or Champagne. The service was outstanding. Always fast and professional. Our guys in the main dining room were some of the best we have ever had.
Another complaint were the availability of deck chairs. We never had trouble finding 2 chairs together. There was plenty of deck chairs everyday. The decks are kept clean and the chairs have built in pillows.
The cabin is nicely decorated and the beds are comfortable. They also have very nice linens and towels. But the storage is missing. There is one closet with 2 small drawers and 3 shelves. The shower is small, but has a nice enclosed glass door.
