Creator's Key Takeaways
I think the restaurants and bars are really well done on this ship. I enjoyed them. The layout's a little wonky in my opinion
This was definitely the best brew pub I've been on on any cruise ship for sure. Really enjoyed it.
I thought it might be super corny, but it was actually the best music event I saw on the entire cruise.
It's really, really awesome to have some serious go-karts on a cruise ship.
