Review summary

Most people on board are there to have fun and meet new people. There’s something for everyone on this cruise.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
Brisbane just didn’t seem to cope well for that number of guests. Too many boarding at same time. Very ugly port. Brisbane really needs to dress up it’s international cruise terminal.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Great selection of bars to choose from.

Lido Marketplace

5 out of 5

Sooo much to choose from at all hours of the day and night. Just wish the breakfast/brunch was an all day available option. Sometimes you like to sleep in and do a late brunch)(I’m talking the eggs options of the menu).

Piano Bar 88

5 out of 5

Great little area with hilariously entertaining bar staff. Wish my cruise had been longer.

Vela Restaurant

4 out of 5

Excellent restaurant and staff are attentive and friendly. Food is delicious and well presented. Just a shame that even after booking on the app, to have to wait so long for a table when the venue is massive and never full?

Sunset Bar

5 out of 5

Such a chilled atmosphere with adults only area. Loved it! Bar staff were fast, friendly and attentive with fun personalities.

Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse

5 out of 5

Most exceptionally attentive staff. So friendly and accomodating. As it’s an additional cost it was well worth it! Can’t fault it.

Well appointed room with larger than expected balcony. Very clean. No complaints at all.

Ship tip

Don’t overpack clothes. Less is more and comfort is the key. But have at least 1 formal outfit for “Fahrenheit 555” it’s soooo worth it!

Disembarkation

3 out of 5
Extremely early disembarking time. Felt very rushed.
