Embarkation was relatively smooth. I had heard that you could arrive 1 hour before the "actual" checkin time, however this was not the case. Drinks packages and dayspa packages were available to purchase before we got on the boat. Im not sure why I spent all the time trying to do it from Australia.

It ended up being a waste of time organising drinks pacakages, as once we got on board the waiters had no idea about the type of packages we had booked! Certainly wasnt there fault, it seems that the packages that are being sold in Australia are actually different to what they have on the ship, or not common. So the translation from Australian booking agents to the ship did not work. This was for 3 of the 5 families that were travelling. They voucher booklets were handy and quite good value for sparking water and soft drinks. You could just buy the drinks from any bar with the vouchers and take them to you rooms. No issue at all. The voucher booklets were on sale on the boat at all times (near the pool area).

The restuarant we were allocated was great (Black Crab). We had amazing waiters "Safwan and Wayan". Couldnt have helped us more. They were fabulous catering to our very need. Great entertaining the kids as well. Our seating was a 6pm, and you needed to arrive by 6.15, otherwise they run behind for their next service. No problems sharing wine etc with the table.
