Review summary

The Jewel of the Seas 9 night Greek Isles cruise was the best cruise that we have been on. We had a suite that was wonderful...very roomy with many perks available to suite guests. The staff and ship were great, all of our needs were met. The ports of call were beyond expectation...Greece was beautiful! Would definately recommend this cruise to others. In fact, would consider going on this cruise again!

Hope to do a cruise similar to this when our Greek daughter-in-law gets married to our son next year.
