Review summary

Given the cost it is not a recommended cruise. The only thing commendable is the tender service (very efficient), restaurant staff service, and the choice of ports. Everything else is either mediocre or unacceptable.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

very good

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

main dining menu not exciting. We ate mostly at the buffets. Variety is acceptable but the quality of the food is just so so. The breakfast needs more variety and the Indian food is not good. The first day (seafood) and the White night food are great.

Onboard Activities

2 out of 5

None can speak of. Only enjoyed a bit of the Croatian cultural night dance show. The quality is mediocre. Wish it could be on shore in a nice venue.

Entertainment

nothing to speak of

Service and Staff

3 out of 5

restaurant staff is good but the room attendant never showed herself and the work quality is subpar. Didn't even vacuum the room for the entire trip!
