Creator's Key Takeaways

Really one of the easiest imbarcation processes I've had anywhere.

Butcher's Block by Daario, which was probably the best meal we had on board.

The Spellbound experience was really neat.

It was a wonderful cruise. We can't wait to go back.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the Ocean Now app for ordering food and drinks for quicker service.
Try to get a reservation at Umi Teppanyaki if possible.
