Cold but fun! by A Traveler from Seattle, WA
Sailing date: Jan 2010

Pros:
wonderful staff, cabin amenities, room service, dinner menus

Cons:
not enough healthy choices during non-dinner, age groups for kids

The staff was wonderful! The dinner selections were quite tasty but the non-dinner options were less than ideal for someone who is mindful of what they ingest. More leniency for kids on the cusp of age groups. My nephew was 1 month shy of being in the 11 and up group but was not allowed to participate. Making teddy bears was not his idea of fun.

Great cruise for teens/pre-teens! by Mary S from Seattle, WA
Sailing date: Aug 2006

Pros:
The staff is super friendly

Cons:
Charging the tip to your Credit Card

If you are looking for a cruiseline to take your teens on this is it. They have a great program that not only introduces the teens to each other, but also gives them a trip to remember. Lots of great activities that are not overly restrictive for our teens! Just enough freedom to think they are on their own, while they are actually being supervised. My daughters have made friends from all over the country that they can keep in contact with for life!

We were on the Sensation which is an older ship, but it is kept in tip top shape by the great staff on board.

Stateroom Quality
I used the option that does not assign a room until the day of sailing enabling me to get a stateroom with a window without paying for it!
