My kind of holiday, as little or as much as you want it to be. Easy, fun and relaxing.

Quite a quick and painless operation. Lots of people but organised well.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Main dining room was brilliant and the buffet was great too. We love grabbing a pizza for a quick snack or a burger if we can’tbe bothered going to the lido.

Onboard Activities

Kids love the water parks, pool and mini golf.

Music Manila, DJ Lando were great

Service and Staff

Waiters and room stewards are the back bone of the ship… amazing people who work hard and are beautiful people.

Ship tip

Have an open mind. Relax. Make the most of your time, whether you are doing absolutely everything you can fit into your day or you are doing nothing but sitting by the pool, just enjoy yourself because it’s over before you know it.

I live the Splendor. Have been on her twice. An older ship but just the right size. Glad you enjoyed your time on her.
