Nice cruise but disappointing shows, especially the musical shows the singer's and dancers weren't that good. The variety of shows were poor and at awkward time. Kristian Grey magician was good.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
On a whole nice, it would be nice for more children friendly options and snacks and crisps. Also a real lack of berries, I think I have consumed several melons during my trip!

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
Kids used the pool every day, I went to the gym several times, lots of treadmills but only 4 bikes and one rower! It would have been good to have more childrens activities.

Children's Programs

3 out of 5
Could have been more inviting, the 3-7 area jungle gym was a bit small for my 7 year old. P and O clubs seemed more inviting on previous cruise.

Cabin / Stateroom

Ok we had premium balcony with 4 in the cabin on a whole good and clean , tv was far too big and you couldn't watch it when the beds were down.

Ship tip

Take a thermos for tea or coffee as there is no kettle in the room also use breakfast room service.
