Ship experiences

Food and Dining

Amazing food in the main restaurant not so much choice in the buffet but still good food.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
We went into the infinity pool when at sea and in port which was lovely since you could look out to sea while staying warm

Amazing headliners shows (Festival, Sky the limit, Centre stage and a Christmas show)

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Amazing staff always wanting to go the extra mile especially Waiters in the Pearl restaurant were extremely friendly and willing to help. they also gave us extra food when we didn't even ask for it.

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
We enjoyed looking around the ship and how it was designed its easy to navigate around. The areas around the ship were cleaned very often and throughout the day.

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
The inside cabin was a larger inside cabin as three people were sharing .The cabin was large enough we had enough room for all three of our clothes for 16 nights. The cabin was quite clean even though it was cleaned once a day. Some nights it was noisy as there was entertainment in the atrium directly above us.

Ports of call

Southampton (London), England Did not visit port

Just drove down their to get on the ship can look around anytime

Lanzarote

5 out of 5
explored the city and did some shopping

Cadiz (Spain)

4 out of 5
We spend 2 days here due to us not going to Vigo and Lisbon. We had a nice walk around the small alleyways and streets.

Vigo, Spain Did not visit port

We didn't visit Vigo due to the bad weather as we couldnt get into the port safely

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
lots of queues to get off as people didn't stick to their departure times to get off the ship.
