Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5

The main dining rooms and buffet were excellent. The speciality dining was not as impressive despite paying more for it but the Chef’s Table was worth every cent.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5

Soaked in the hot tub and played bingo

Entertainment

5 out of 5

We were constantly entertained by live singers in the atrium.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5

Staff were very professional and friendly.

Ship Quality

4 out of 5

Ship was very new and clean. Balcony could be bigger or the furniture smaller as it was a rather tight squeeze sitting out there.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5

Cabin was very clean as the steward went in twice a day to tidy up. Size was comfortable as we had an extra sitting area. Bed was excellent. We slept very well every night.

Ship tip

Book at least a mini suite if you are claustrophobic. Can consider skipping the specialty restaurants as the main dining food was awesome. But do take the Chef’s Table if you have a chance.
