Review of Casino Miami, Cruise Ship.

We are rather new to cruising. However, after sailing with a higher end competitor, there were remarkably notable differences. Firstly, I found the crew lacked polish with regard to politeness and overall customer service; this was especially true for the dining staff. Secondly, the food was mediocre at best. Day one the prime rib was delicious at lunchtime; however, it tasted like leftovers when it was offered again for dinner. The cabins were comparable to the more expensive cruise ship.

If you re not a smoker and/or suffer with breathing issues, the position of the casino on the Getaway made venturing between the bow and stern public areas difficult while trying to avoid the secondhand smoke.

There was one highlight to our trip; the crew was able to find and rescue two sailors whose sailboat was sinking in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico.
