Disappointing apart from excellent veranda suite.

Review summary
Given what they normally charge I expected a lot.The suite did deliver top quality but that wasn’t very important to me I was more interested in food activities and entertainment .The food wasn’t exceptional for example very little variety of fish mostly tuna squid and lemon sole once they had swordfish.the buffet at breakfast and lunch was dull even the breads seemed to be those bought in rolls that you bake on board or so they tasted.the space on the buffet was very small and limited the variety. The staff seemed to be very varied in their standards few seemed to really know food or wine and some of the men were almost rude. At afternoon tea I had to ask 4 times for more tea. I got the impression of a complacent company failing to keep up to date and of a distinct lack of supervision and innovation. They sent me an email in advance telling me I was going on a different cruise which when the agent asked them they admitted was a mistake they then 2 weeks sent an email asking me to review the cruise I hadn’t been on. 6 stars I don’t think so.Embarkation
