Each day after breakfast we would go to the international cafe for coffee, then again most afternoons adding a sweet. Already paid a deposit for our next one.

Room steward was lovely always saying hello and remembering our names which would not be easy. Waiters where very attentive and funny at times as we got to know them.
Ship Quality
4 out of 5
The Golden is getting old now you can see it in the carpet, wearing out in places. A few leaks here and there as well. Overall was very clean
Cabin / Stateroom

Bed was very comfy. Room not that big that’s why we always get the balcony for space and fresh air. Thank you for not allowing smoking on the balcony’s
Ship tip
Take an American aptor if you need to plug into ships electricity.
Very friendly people on the island, we didn’t book any excursions so just walked around for about an hour checked out the museum and local market before going back to the ship
