Review summary

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5

The buffet breakfast was the same every day - limited options, eggs were ghastly, nearly no vegetables at all. We switch to the main dining for breakfast which was marginally better. Main dining was alright for options and quality. Bamboo was terrible - mostly just carbs with a sprinkle of green and two prawns. Calamari was undercooked

Service and Staff

I had to argue with Guest Service for a bandaid - they wanted me to go to the infirmary to purchase them. I work in a boutique hotel - this seemed ridiculous to nickel and dime me over a bandaid.

Hard to navigate.

Really quiet, but really far away from everything. Great if you love walking.
