Ship experiences

Food and Dining

4 out of 5
We stuck to the specialty restaurants as the MDR's were very busy. Glad we didn't add the drinks packages as they were quite expensive which was not a problem, but the bar service was very slow

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
We found that the Iona is more like a floating hotel, where as Royal Caribbean are more like floating resorts

Entertainment

2 out of 5
Only my opinion... the entertain had huge potential but the performers screamed songs instead of singing them, quite a few people mentioned that the singers screeched.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The staff in the specialty restaurants were outstanding, were as the staff in the bars and MDRS were very slow, possibly understaffed.

Ship Quality

3 out of 5

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Cabin was great, very much like a premier Inn room in size and design
