# previous cruises: 7
Date of Trip: November 4, 2000
Itinerary: Caribbean
This is one of the most beautiful ships I have ever been on. This ship has over $2,000,000.00 worth of art on board. The food is outstanding. Cabins are very roomy - almost 25% larger than other cruise ships that we have been on.Public rooms are good.
I have no favorite, they are all great. The casino was not that important to me, but we did go to the movie theater,two shows, and mostly relaxed.All of the rooms are open, large, and are full of light.
The food was wonderful. Our ship had six lounges, three restaurants, and a grill. The service was also really good, the people were so nice.
We had a Penthouse Suite, and it was wonderful, it had an oversize whirlpool tub, king size bed, HUGE verandah, dining room, and a walk in closet. The service with it matched the room, with special (dis)embarkation privileges, terry bathrobes, high tea in our stateroom, and an Indonesian Rijsttafel with the captain, plus many more little touches that made this a great cruise.
We attended two of the shows, and they were not as good as we had expected, but they were fine. The staff was incredibly conscientious.
The ship was so much fun, with table tennis, a spa and wood deck chairs it was great, but RELAXATION was the best. At the ports, we mainly sunned and swam at the ocean, but we did shop some.
My fellow passengers were SO nice,yes, I would invite them over in a second.
