Creator's Key Takeaways

This was one of our favorite cruises of all time.

I have to say the buffet was probably the best buffet I've ever seen.

It was my favorite entertainment at sea. Thought everything was a 10 out of 10.

This was one of, if not my favorite cruise experience I've ever had.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Go to the speak easy for a unique bar experience.
βœ“Arrive two hours early for the 254 West and I Hotel shows to get a seat.
βœ“If you're a pool lounger, be aware of the limited pool chairs and consider reserving a cabana.
βœ“Check out the outdoor seating at Ocean View Cafe for beautiful wake views.
βœ“Ask for the executive menu in main dining to order specialties from other restaurants.
