THE FOOD

Pinnacle Grill and Tamarind are amazing, both in quality of food and service.

Main dining room and buffet also had great service, but the food was hit or miss (which is to be expected for mass production). Also to be expected: the buffet area can be a madhouse at times and finding a table for larger groups can be a challenge. The main dining room was just the opposite: most table around ours were empty on the two nights we ate there.

Cabin Review

Superior Verandah Suite

Cabin SY

Our cabin (7080) was a little larger than most Signature Suites since it's located right were the ship juts back out from the center. The extra space extends the cabin quite a bit and might have been better suited for additional square footage on the balcony, but it's also a great spot to store empty luggage.

Bed was comfortable and AC/heat both worked well.

Hardly heard any hallway noise in the evenings, nor anyone in the cabins next door or above.

Cabin was always attended to quickly in the mornings and in the evenings for turn-down service.
