New England Cruise
October
Pros: Waitstaff, housekeeping staff and everyone else friendly and courtious
Cons: Excursions were not long enough to allow for shopping
Recommended: Yes
The ship was clean and everyone we encountered was very friendly and a lot of fun. I appreciated that they were concious on making sure everyone was using hand sanitizer and loved the enthusiasm of those trying to make it fun. "happy, happy, washy, washy!" LOVED IT! Our waitstaff Julia and Agnes were great and Nancy, who cleaned our stateroom was awesome and I loved the towel animals! It was a bummer we had to skip Bar Harbor, but totally understand and appreciate that the captain made the right decision.

Serenade of the Seas 4 Night Western Caribbean
August
Pros: Staff gets to know you very well
Cons: Elevators were small
Recommended: No
I was a nice small ship the last time it was updated was in 2012 it is a Radiance-class and holds just under 2500 people but I did enjoy it the Specialty dining was better cause the rooms were smaller and you get a more personal touch. The ship did not fell cramped and the atrium is in the middle of the ship and at 10 pm they close the hallway doors to keep the sound from coming to the rooms which that different from the larger ships. Another neat feature of this ship was it was short enough to fit under the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Tampa,Fl it was a very cool site to see the ship just fit under the bridge. Overall I give this ship a thumbs UP.

Short cruise
July
Pros: Wonderful staff
Cons: Older ship
Recommended: Yes
Short cruise on an older ship, cabins are small but comfortable. Bathrooms are ultra small with a shower that feels like a coffin. Staff was excellent and friendly. Food was good but not up to the old standard.

Great staff and nice getaway
April
Pros: evening dining great food and staff, clean and accommodating
Cons: could have more entertainment, only had comedy once early evening.
Recommended: Yes
Overall we had an amazing trip with our family. My parents turned 80 and my dad is end stage leukemia so it was bitter sweet. It was perfect for he could rest when needed and still able to sit through dinner or rest in the solarium. No rush just relax. Thank you for making this time perfect for our family. It was the first time in 45 years that all three of the siblings and spouses have all been together with our parents for a lengthy time. A time we will never forget.

Ports were great - as well as excursions. Missed Cabo because of winds and Huatulco because of tides but others were excellent. Ship was not full so not crowded.
