Review summary

The constant loop of Jeremy Beadle “You’ve Been Framed” type videos at poolside wore thin after a few days. A selection of music videos/VH1 would have sufficed. Maybe a suggestion if there were phone charger stations dotted around the ship as majority of people had Wi-Fi or even tablets for reading and from my family’s experience they were constantly going flat. Also maybe a good idea to put drinks dispensers on the top deck as well as the promenade.

Chose anytime dining this time and had no problem reserving the same table every night. Waiters were excellent and could not do enough for you.
