We were on the same cruise. It was myself and husband, and our three kids, my mother and my inlaws. For all but my inlaws, this was our first cruise ever, and most likely the last.
I didnt really have a lot of expectations going in, other than having fun and lots to do for the kids. Boy, was I wrong.
I knew it would be busy and crowded, being the holidays, and I always expect some things to go awry, but not EVERYTHING. No matter what we tried or where we went, there were problems and no one wanting to help solve them. Problems registering cards, out of numerous things, stores closed at what you would think to be peak times-the middle of a day at sea when its raining. Thats when you open stores. Cutting off cards, hardly any drinks available at the buffet, so youre forced to buy them. Arcade games broken, rides broken, stand in line for an hour for a wristband for the waterslide and they close it. Keep the pool open in rough seas, close them in calm seas. Coffee but no cups, cups but no ice, never any juice.
The food at the buffet and Waves was equally bad. The bacon had no flavor, which Ive never encountered. My husband stuck to salad and bread because the food didnt agree with him. That was until he found a roach in his salad.
NEVER AGAIN.
