A cruise with a great itinerary. Lovely ports of call. Superb weather.
However the ship is in a ropey state of repair which is soon to be renovated thank goodness!!

Ship experiences
Food and Dining

Sorry but the food remains very samey!!
Windjammer quite disappointing this trip. Perfectly edible just not very exciting
Onboard Activities
4 out of 5
Good activities such as mini golf and baggo!!
Entertainment
4 out of 5
The orchestra and headliner sometimes were really good. Darren day was superb together with tenors unlimited!! The east coast boys were good too! However the Caribbean singers and dancers were not that great. The singers spent most of the time screaming and shouting which was very off putting!!
Service and Staff
4 out of 5
All the staff were great. Cabin steward very friendly and efficient. The diamond concierge was lovely.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
Okay but in desperate need of a refit and upgrade. Good to hear that is going to happen in November. Carpets on Deck 6 were frankly a disgrace. Sorry and stained!
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
The actual cabin was as expected. A good size and well equipped. However the balcony itself needs to be renovated.
Ship tip
Join in as much as possible and get off in every port even if it's just to look around on your own!!
We love Gibraltar having visited several times before. We just walked into town and had a mooch and a cocktail. A tip is to walk in if able rather than a taxi as it's only a 15 minute stroll.
Amazing port. It is tendered so the ship is anchored away from the actual port. Great fun in light seas. The port itself is idyllic with several lovely shops.
An overnight stopover in Palma. Just lovely but the walk into town is a long hike. Paying for a transfer is a good idea. Palma is a large city with a fun atmosphere and good shopping.
