We had a great time aboard the Bliss for our cruise, but we were not prepared for the crowds on this ship. The Buffet, does take the pressure off the dining schedule, but during peak times you have to be competitive to find a table to sit at. we figured out quickly to not eat at typical meal times to take the stress off our family meal time.

As the person who is paying for my family, I did start to feel resentful with all the extra costs while aboard. I has been a while since I cruised, so i was was surprised at how little of the entertainment is included with the cost of the cruise. When I cruised before there was a show /performance / entertainment available for you every night at no extra cost. that was not the case here. Be prepared to pay extra for the big stage performances, comedy clubs...etc. The on ship go carts and Laser tag were fun, but with all the extra costs, and crowd we could only go once.

We dined at theTeppanyaki restaurant, and that was a lot of fun and food was excellent. But it was well over $100 for the experience, and we had drink packages.

Cabin Review

Balcony Stateroom

Cabin BF

The Cabin was quite nice, I was staying with my two daughters, so we used the drop down bunk. The novelty wore off quickly as the bunk was not comfortable and constantly squeaked and groaned during the night when ever someone moved in it. I tried it myself and got very little sleep. The drain plug in the bathroom was also broken, I reported both issues and was told they would be looked at immediately, but neither issue was addressed
