Review summary

Overall we enjoyed this cruise as much or more than any other one we have done. The ship is great, the crew is wonderful, and the shore excursions planned via Seabourn were all very good to excellent. We will certainly consider Seabourn for any future cruises.

Embarkation

5 out of 5
Lots of people to help and ship was easy to access.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
This is a very nice cruise ship and we have traveled on none better. Food was excellent throughout. Staff was always very helpful and friendly. We enjoyed the Colonnade restaurant a lot because of the option to sit outside.

Onboard Activities

4 out of 5
Onboard activities were good and areas were well maintained. We enjoyed the special functions that occurred during the voyage.

Entertainment

3 out of 5
The stage shows were fine, but did not correspond to where we were sailing, which would have been an improvement. Musicians were excellent. We think this is typical for a smaller ship and was fine for our vacation.

Children's Programs

Very few children on this voyage.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All were simple outstanding. The two women taking care of our room, Thott and Esther, were amazing. They greeted us by name every day and took meticulous care of our suite.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The ship is very well maintained - all looked 'new' and it is obvious that Seabourn takes very special attention to the care of their ships.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5
Well, this was an amazing suite. It was over 600 sq feet in size and gave us the needed amenities for all that we could ask for. We both thank our travel advisor (Sharman Carter) for helping us to find this suite. As noted above, Thott and Esther took special care to make sure everything was always in order.

Ship tip

Be prepared to enjoy yourself and get to know your fellow passangers.

Ports of call

Lisbon, Portugal

5 out of 5
We had been here before and this Lisbon has a lot to offer as a destination all on its own.

Agadir, Morocco Did not visit port

Seas were too rough - we felt bad that this port of call was skipped.
