The one caution
6.5out of 10 for value
Higher than only 27% of ships. The typical ship scores 6.96.
Of the 56 reviewers who wrote about it, 27% were positive.
Five categories rate in the top tenth of the fleet — cabins, service, disembarkation, embarkation and fitness.
Five are good without being remarkable: entertainment, activities, ship quality, dining and public areas. They rate higher than 56% to 89% of ships.
Family sits in the middle of the fleet too, but only 58 people scored it, so treat it as a hint.
One falls below the fleet: value (higher than only 27% of ships).
Covered in full above.
Cabin grade barely matters here. The inside, oceanview, balcony and suite grades all score between 8.94 and 9.29. Pick on price and position, not on rating.
Reviewers named 12 places by name. This is the one where knowing changes anything — the other 11 are all liked by 67% to 90% of the people who mentioned them.
Families with young kids (27 of 34), first-time cruisers (26 of 31), families with teens (12 of 17) and solo travelers (10 of 10).
No group described it as a poor fit.
