Review summary

Not the best cruise. A lot of large groups. Not much to do during the 4 seadays (only the last seaday was good). Pools were too cold.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Arrived at 10.30am and was onboard 15min later. Best embarkation ever.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

2 out of 5
Buffet was not very good; limited choice for diner. Tables outside were dirty and never properly cleaned, disgusting, saw a lot of people cleaning there own table. We had the premium beverage package; staff always try to give you the cheaper drinks (like prosecco and not champagne). A lot of the good wines, champagnes were out of stock after a few days.

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Boring cruise. Pools were too cold. A lot of the activities started after 10pm.

Tables outside the oceanview cafe were always dirty.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Oceanview panoramic cabin. Nice.

Ship tip

Do not buy the premium beverage package for champagne. You will always have to check what they serve you and wait untill they find the right bottle.
