The highs were the friendliness and kindness of most staff, including the room steward, the dining room staff, and the photographers. The ship offered a myriad of activities for all ages, with unique experiences such as watercoloring, professional dance lessons, paper plane contests and so forth.

The lows included hit or miss meals (some dishes were wonderful, some inedible), pushy staff trying to upsell restaurants, alcohol and jewelry, a late arrival in Bermuda, and a last-minute cancelled shore excursion.The television programming is extremely limited and has too many Celebrity channels.
