Girls break with family. Relaxed with good restaurant food.
Embarkation
5 out of 5
Arrived in Southampton early for our midday boarding at 11.15 but was able to drop off the car and check in immediately.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Due to gastro viruses on the ship, the buffet wasn't self service so the queues were awful.
Ate in the MDR's where service was fast and food very good albeit with limited menu options.
Beach House meal was superb, fresh, good portion size and hot.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Limited choices available. Enjoyed the free saun room.
.
Entertainment
3 out of 5
Awful and not much variety unless you liked bingo or quizzes.
Children's Programs
5 out of 5
Excellent. Granddaughter attended 2 sessions daily. Staff friendly and the organised activities were fun.
Service and Staff
3 out of 5
Staff appeared overworked and miserable in all areas of the ship.
Ship Quality
3 out of 5
The ship is looking very old and jaded especially in the communal areas. Easy to navigate though. Lots of the lifts were out of action making it difficult for those with mobility issues to get around. Subsequently, the queues for the lifts were always very busy.
Cabin / Stateroom
3 out of 5
Our cabin B745 was OK but needed a total revamp. The carpets were grubby and walls damaged. It was a good size though and the balcony sat 3 of us comfortably.
Plenty to see and do. Canal cruise was excellent. Good value for money and informative. Took an early one and there were only 23 passengers so plenty of room.
