Creator's Key Takeaways

The food is delicious on this ship. The buffet there was some great food in the buffet. Probably some of the best food I've ever had in a buffet was on this ship.

It is older, but it is wellmaintained. I'm seeing individuals constantly painting the outside of the ship and also on the ship and really keeping up the ship.

For those individuals who may have children and want them to be able to have that full experience of running around and being able to have a water slide to enjoy, this will not be the cruise for you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Find out what the dress code is before going to dinner instead of going there and having to change.
βœ“Make sure you bring your orange and go to that orange party.
βœ“Be mindful of the dome on the Leo deck as it can get hot when closed in warmer climates.

Excursion tickets β€” You don't need physical tickets; it is all tied to your sailing sign card or the app.
Dress code β€” Check the dress code beforehand; for example, long pants may be required even on casual nights.
