Sail Date: Jun 2012
Cabin: Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony
Traveled with children

we sailed with 2 teenage sons from Venice on the Splendour in late June to the Eastern Med. Our only prior cruise was some years ago in the Western Caribbean on the Explorer, without the children, and i really enjoyed that, despite my previous perceptions that cruises were for 'old folks".

Now that I am an 'old folk" age 58, I guess I fit right in !

The Splendour is smaller, which has two advantages: first, embarking and disembarking is MUCH quicker. Second, and this is a perception, it may not be true, it seems that the ratio of space to passengers is better on the smaller ships than the larger ships. The ship was full, but much less crowded that the Explorer was, also full.

Superior Ocean View Stateroom with Balcony

Cabin D2

good, nice balcony. shower, no bath. finishes new , so nice and clean.

well located, quiet, and easy access to lifts and centre.

kids stayed across the hall in an inside stateroom, so could keep an eye on them !
