Review summary

The ship is spotless, our balcony stateroom well equipped, the cabin staff excellent.

 

There was ample food: our favorites, the Lido and the Tamarind.Tamarind staff is tops.

 

The tours were good, relaxing and non-intellectual, just fun.

 

The gym is first rate, and the trainer, Dee, professional.

 

Our only negative is the cost and quality of internet service. Far too expensive. Good hotels provide wifi at no cost.

 

All in all, a great experience which we will do again.
