Review summary

I was in a group of 4 in a Cabin unit - although the cabins are small, we all fit adequately and had no problems. Our steward "Lucianno" was great, always provided excellent service and add'l towels when needed. Our waiter Bryan was always very attentive and always used our names. The décor of the Splendor is the old 'gawdy' type décor - but the service and services provided were great. Good food, wonderful staff, and lots of activities to keep one busy (if they so desired).

I highly suggest the following......

1) offer photos starting in 5x7 size - 8x10's are just TOO BIG for many folks - I strongly believe more photos would sell if they could simply buy 1 or more 5x7's from the start!! (I and everyone else in my cabin would have bought them, or more of them if we could simply buy a 5x7!)

2) Have an "Access Code" to review ones sign & Sail account on the tv screen. The way it is now, anyone in the cabin can review another cabin mates sign and sail account (which should be a personal account and treated as such). We all know each others folio because they are consecutively assigned!!

3) Have the sign & sail account summary in individual envelopes addressed to that folio person - vice all open and placed in the mailbox on the last night of the cruise - again, treat it as personal information, no one else should be able to just view another cruise members folio (regardless if they are in the same cabin on not!!)

Other than that, I think the overall experience was wonderful - as before! :)
