It was our first time ever to cruise and we quite enjoyed all of it! We tried to enjoy as many activities as we could each night but it was not as easy for us as we had someone who had special needs. The service was exceptional throughout the ship--from cabin cleaners, food servers, crew, etc... It's great to finally be in an environment where you feel openly appreciated and welcomed. Everyone working on the ship always had a smile on their face and greeted us as we passed.

We absolutely loved the food: Lido Market and the main Dining Room especially. I highly recommend pre-booking dinner reservation spots to ensure a seat and lessen the wait each night. (This of course was complimentary fine-dining included in the cruise package).

The live music on all stages were fun! we bounced around from piano battles to live music at BB King then another live band at the Rolling Stone room. The only thing we wish to request for future cruises is to have music to accommodate all decades. It would be great if they threw in some newer generation music here and there. The entertainers were unbelievably talented. We loved how funny the hosts were!

PARADISE! wish this part of the trip never had ended. the only reason it's a 4 star review is because it was cut way too short. serene atmosphere!
