We chose this cruise for the ports of call, and wanted to tray a new line since we have cruised on Carnival, RCCL, Princess and Celebrity for prior vacations. Embarkation and Debarkation were great, probably the only think that was great.

The ship has a horrible layout. The cabins are small and the beds, I'm 5'8" tall and my feet hung off the end. Also, when we checked in our cabin there were dirty socks in the drawer and the dirt/sand also in the cabinets. the toilet offers no privacy with a glass door. The sink is in the main body of the cabin. Most areas of the ship are crowded. They have shows/talks next to the guest services desk so you can't hear anything, again poor design. The main theater is tiny, hence everything you do requires a reservation. Rarely can you walk in and see a show.

Dining was average, probably the worst tasting food of any cruise we have been on prior. The choice of restaurants is okay, but again the food is just average. The only great thing was the Cirque dinner show.
