It was a nice relaxing cruise, but nothing special. I had heard the Canary Islands was a popular vacation spot for Europeans, so I always thought of it as being very nice. However, I live close to the Caribbean and it cannot compare.

Food and Dining
3 out of 5
I like fish, but every time I ordered it, it was dry and over cooked. Once I changed to other dishes, they were very good.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Didn’t do any activities. I tried to go to the pool a few times, but never could get a chair. Pool area very small and dinky.

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
The pool area left a lot to be desired. The solarium was nice, but I wanted to sit in the sunshine.
Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
They have upgraded the cabin and bathroom and it is very nice. Large shower and lots of storage. The bed is next to the sliding glass door instead of the couch and you can lay in bed and look out at the sea. Very nice.
Ship tip
No laundromats and small pool with not enough room for the crowds.
No much to do. We took a bus to Correlajo and the a Ferry to Los Lobos island. Very pretty water, but this is one ugly island. If I had known the Canary Islands were this ugly, I would never have gone. You feel like you’ve been dropped on Mars. Brown lava rock and dusty all over. Some parts have not a speck of green.
We went down to Puerto del Carmen area (Playa Grande Beach) and it was nice, but nothing spectacular. The sand is very dark brown and hot. Never once saw a white sand beach like advertised
