Sail Date: Apr 2014
Traveled with children

This was the first cruise for our family of 5 (two adults, 6yr, 9yr, 11yr old children). There were 4 sea days from Sydney to our first port of call, Port Villa in Vanuatu.

The ship was large, with 2500 cruisers (about 950 of which were children). There were two main dining options, a buffet type place with perhaps 8 different options, and a sit down 3 course meal restaurant. The food and service at both these locations the food was pretty good. There were a few other miscellaneous options for eating, including a couple of places where you could pay around AU$40 for an extra special meal - I didn't try this so I don't know how good the food was.

Because there were 5 of us we had to be split between two cabins (they call them "staterooms" but they are just cabins!), as there were very few cabins available that could hold 5 people. This was ok as we were only about 3 cabins apart. The cabins were fine, but we didn't spend that much time there, lots of other things to do.
