This was our first cruise there were some enjoyable things but overall it was disappointing.
The boat itself is dated and therefore the rooms and facilities are a bit tired. Clearly the maintenance crew worked continuously to maintain the boat.
The trip from Melbourne spends 3 days at sea before getting to Auckland which is a long time to do boat only activities with another 2.5 days on the return same same.
rooms were smaller than expected and not quite as the pictures represented
