The one caution

6.2out of 10 for value

Higher than only 17% of ships. The typical ship scores 6.96.

Of the 128 reviewers who wrote about it, 27% were positive.

Everything else, in two lines

Five are good without being remarkable: activities, ship quality, cabins, fitness and disembarkation. They rate higher than 51% to 78% of ships.

Family sits in the middle of the fleet too, but only 70 people scored it, so treat it as a hint.

Six fall below the fleet: service, entertainment, public areas, embarkation, dining and value. They rate higher than 17% to 47% of ships.

Cabin grade does matter here. Oceanview rates 9.1 and balcony rates 8.6, across 463 cabin ratings.
