Destinations were very good. Accommodations on the ship were good. Food on the ship was ok. I have had better, more tasty food than the food in the main dining room.
Embarkation

It was raining and there wasn't any covering to get from the cruise terminal to the cruise ship so we got wet.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
3 out of 5
Food was not as good as other cruise lines I have taken. It was ok but not great like others. The fish from the main dining room was not very tasty and was very bland. Chocolate desserts tasted like sandy grit and not smooth or as flavorful as others I have tried.

Service and Staff

Waiters were very good. Assistant maiter'd was also very good and accommodating. Room steward was not so good. He had to be told to clean our room in a timely manner. Some days the room was not cleaned until after 2:30pm.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Size and comfort were very good. Balcony view was excellent. Some areas were not so clean though.
Had an excursion but was not impressed with the island given the pictures I had seen. Went to Oia but it was so crowded that had a hard time walking around and getting the views.
Had excursion to the museum and also a dinner with entertainment. The dinner was good and the dancing was also very good. However, Athens was dirty and had a lot of graffiti on the walls of the buildings.
Port was beautiful but did not have enough time to view anything interesting. Tour guide was very informative. We went to a market which was good. But did not see anything interesting due to the shortness of the time there.
Took the Hop-on/Hop-off bus. Since it was a Sunday, many of the places were closed. So, we only had a few stops. Too much driving without any stops due to things being closed.
All of the ports are crowded because these are popular tourist destinations. You need to expect this when you cruise. Normally there are other cruise ships in port too.
