Review summary

Loved it. Plain & simple. I would've preferred an all inclusive cruise as we had rather a large bar bill.

Very straight forward.

Ship experiences

The Meridian was the better of the 2 freedom dining restaurants. the Sindhu was amazing.

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5

Entertainment

3 out of 5

Very disappointing. Apart from Jon Clegg & the comedian from the Rocking Berries. Jay Mc Afee. Astonishing was anything but.

Children's Programs

No children with us.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Very good.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

The ship was always spotless. We didn't like the stairs only at the rear & aft. The lifts were very slow.

Cabin / Stateroom

3 out of 5

The cabin was far too small for a 14 day trip it was a struggle getting in & out during the night to use the bathroom. The cabin was always cleaned but on occasion there was a shortage of towels.
