Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Symphony Dining Room very good. Food excellent. Service excellent. Grill/steak restaurant excellent. Used Room Service every morning and evening for tea and coffee. Ok but coffee not very hot. Decided to order breakfast one morning and they got almost everything on the order wrong ie orange juice instead of tomato, no fruit, no egg/bacon muffins, 1 roll instead of 2 toast, strawberry jam instead of marmalade, 3 yoghurts instead of 2. Got the corn flakes right! Also found Room Service would take 15 to 20 minutes to answer the phoneAs

Ship Quality
5 out of 5
Design very impressive. Layout very good. We felt there were too many passengers as it was often difficult to find a seat or a quiet spot
Cabin / Stateroom

M314 was small but comfortable and clean
Ship tip
As a couple, we paid $540 each for Wifi which was very unreliable, slow and not worth the money. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED & POOR VALUE FOR MONEY
Y partner was I’ll so I went ashore on my own caught a taxi to and from Rundle Mall. Enjoyed the time exploring the shops and watching the buskers in the Mall
Elderly and disabled people need assistance and can’t walk the length of the pier. Fortunately we negotiated for our daughter to be allowed to drive through to pick us up
Glad you had a good trip. I think Room Service probably was tired of serving your room twice a day. Wi-Fi is never great on a ship and never worth $540 just to stay online between ports. It’s good to disconnect for a couple days and can save you a lot of money.
