First impressions were that the ship was well designed with an attractive atrium. The staff without exception were friendly and professional. The decor was in good condition. The quality of the food in the buffet and the main dining room was very good.
The first evening show for us after second sitting dinner was of high standard. However subsequent shows were timed badly for our dining arrangements. They were scheduled at 7pm and 9:30pm At the former we were making ready for the evening and at the latter we were dining. So missed all of the rest, which was disappointing. Pre dinner performances of the house band Soul were most enjoyable and included some strong singers and musicians. The itinerary was interesting and varied with wide range of excursions. Our main criticism was the cost of alcohol which was made worse with the addition of 15% gratuity on every drink.
Cabin situated forward just below the Bridge. Very spacious with a large window.
