Review summary

This is a beautiful ship! Very top notch in every way.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

Food was fabulous with so many choices. One table companion asked if they ever had coconut ice cream, and lo and behold, it appeared the next night (homemade just for us) and for the remainder of our cruise. What delightful service.

Entertainment

5 out of 5

Entertainment every night was excellent and very professional.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

We were constantly waited on and asked if everything was good. Excellent service in all aspects.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

Great design with almost every cabin having a balcony.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

Stateroom was very comfortable and well planned out with enough storage space for everything.

Ports of call

Santorini, Greece

5 out of 5

This island is stunning. This is where you will take so many pictures. Definitely have to visit Oia - that's the coolest. Public bus runs to Oia.

Don't Miss: Oia

Piraeus (Athens), Greece

1 out of 5

Athens is a big city and dirty (strike was in progress so garbage was piled up). Also we couldn't get into the Acropolis because of the strike. We decided we don't think we ever need to go back to Athens. Plaka shopping area was fun.

Thumbs Up 0

Don't Miss: Acropolis (if there's not a strike) and Plaka for shopping (adjacent to Acropolis area)

Mykonos, Greece

5 out of 5

Shopping in town is fun. Beautiful beaches!

Don't Miss: Mykonos town and beaches (Platis Gialis beach)

Kusadasi (Ephesus), Turkey

5 out of 5

Kusadasi is great for shopping. Ephesus is AMAZING. Sirince village is awesome. Use Ephesus Shuttle for a private guide for an extraordinarily great price. Excellent service and I highly recommend them.

Don't Miss: Ephesus, & Sirince for a small village experience away from tourists

Naples, Italy

5 out of 5

Island of Capri is accessible via boat from Naples port and is a wonderful place to spend the day. Amalfi coast & Positano the BEST!

Don't Miss: Capri, Anacapri, chairlift to Monte Solaro (top of Capri), Amalfi coast, Positano

Rhodes, Greece

5 out of 5

Old walled city is cool. Definitely visit Lindos too - there's a public bus but have to go outside the walled city to find it.

Thumbs Up 0

Don't Miss: Walled city and visit to Lindos

Messina, Sicily

3 out of 5

Mt. Etna interesting but not a must see. Taormina is a must see. Very fun charming town with little shops.

Don't Miss: Taormina

Pros: Gorgeous ship, great service, wonderful ports

Cons: A little too much marketing of product/services onboard
