Sail Date: Feb 2013
Cabin: Interior Stateroom

It all started with 4 women checking into a "4 Berth" cabin.....Ha! Not even 4 2yr olds could have fit comfortably in this room. Request for another room (2 berth......which happens to be the exact same size as the 4 berth!), initially cost quote was $400 each! (WHAT!) After much negotiating, which included tears and many hours of pleading, I managed to get the cost down to $150 each - not a great start but at least we can breath a little better.

The ship is small and supposedely boast millions of dollars of refurbishments... where? Pools (only 2) were very small and one in particular was taken up with screaming kids (and on some occassions adults), don't even think about swimming or doing any laps!

The food in the Windjammer (buffet) was very average and after the 3rd day becomes almost inedible... especially after I discovered insects crawling around in the brown sugar that I had topped my porridge with....YUK!!!! My compensation for this? Free lunch or dinner......I don't think so!!!!

Cabin Review

Interior Stateroom

Tiny cabin, no fridge, no (free) ironing facilities, TV program selection very poor.
