Outstanding value for money. Have you ever tried filling a 15 year old boy's stomach? This cruise did! There really is delicious food 24 hours of the day. The Garden Cafe was amazing and had free soft drinks virtually all day and night. The 'children' were able to drink apple and orange juice for breakfast and extremely refreshing flavoured water and lemonade filled with ice cold ice at all other times. With free coffee, tea and hot chocolate available too we saved an absolute fortune not having to purchase drinks constantly. We actually chose the lemonade over our usual coke and fanta which we would have had to pay for. We wouldn't have minded paying for the drinks and went fully expecting to but we were blown away by how much was free on the ship, for example, the ice cream machine wasn't just ice cream, there were sauces and toppings too. We aren't a greedy family but it has made us realise how much a family of 4 spends on holiday buying just drinks, snacks and ice creams. As our 'spending money' was vastly reduced it made the cruise extremely good value.

The shows were AMAZING!! The show on the last night was West End standard!!

The ports (Greek Isles) we visited were perfect for our teenagers. 2 were by tender boat, making it more interesting for them, the cable car at Santorini again was an added bonus for them and every place was bustling with little streets full of shops for them to shop in.

Cabin O1

Cabin 5032 - perfect location but floor space cramped when the 4th bed is pulled out into the middle of the 2 lower bunks.
