Excellent choice of entertainment & restaurants. Loved the little extras such as virtual darts & skittles (small fee for these). The IceBar was fun to do and included two drinks per person (extra charge). Different to have O'Sheehan's bar open 24/7 for drinks & food rather than buffet (not open 24/7). Food in here was just as fresh & tasty at breakfast as it was at midnight. Plenty on tables free most of the time. Ate at three of the speciality dinning as part of our package - worth the extra, though not sure good value if paid onboard prices. Cabin was spacious - smallest balcony we've ever had, with just enough room for two small chairs & stool/table. Wardrobe was very close to side of the bed, leaving little room to access clothes/shoes stored in there. We are not fans of large ships for reasons such as tender bookings, disembarkation at ports, large queues for restaurants etc, though none of these were an issue. Use the app wisely and you'll usually manage to get show & restaurant bookings without any problem. Drinks onboard were well above average and made fresh to order. Pity the weather was wet and windy - would have loved to use the outdoor waterpark areas & climbing trail. Hot tubs and pool open when weather permitting.

Lovely ship. Staff are very helpful and pleasant. Fiid was excellent.
The excursions were a let down for me. Disorganised in the auditorium on the first day instead of people sitting in allocated excusion area (left, middle and right) everyone was mixed up which caused congestion.
People dont listen or ignore instructions given by the crew.
New Bruswick was a very poor stop.
Halifax was lovely and I personally really enjoyed Boston and Newport.
