Review summary
We had an amazing trip. We combined a few days in Rome beforehand with the 6 night cruise and it gave us a great overview of stops we might not have visited. Our cabin (sky suite) was a nice size and the food, especially in Murano, was better than expected. We traveled with 12 people and it made things very easy since there was a span in ages from 9 to 57. There was something for everyone. The kids club and teen lounge didn't completely appeal to our kids this time around. While the cruise was family friendly, it was a more sophisticated vibe and the young ones were a bit bored. The boys spent a great deal of time between the pool and the basketball court. They would have loved some nightly organized sport events in lieu of the lounge. The young women (18) were happy to tag along with us old people and do Karaoke and Silent Disco (fun). Our favorite stops were Rome (but we didn't consider it a stop since we were there 3 days before boarding), La Spezia (Cinque Terre was amazing), Nice and Corsica. We went into every port. I was not a fan of Sardinia as I found the city over run with graffiti and it didn't have the same feel as the other ports. Naples is not one of my favorites either, but we chartered a boat for the day and went to Capri and had our most enjoyable day there. Overall, I thought the value for the investment was amazing. We spent less on this cruise and were able to upgrade to a suite with a premium beverage package for much less than most cruises. I checked prices on future sailings and haven't seen as good a deal on anything at this time. I would recommend this cruise to my friends and family in the future.Embarkation
