Cabin: Interior Stateroom

We have travelled on a variety of cruise lines Ncl, Princess, Rcl and P&O and thought we would try a new line. We were very excited to be travelling on a 5 star line...what a disappointment!

The good

Large inside cabin, ports of call and the length of the stops. BB Blues singers and musicians were magnificient high energy and talented. Formula one tour was good. Drink prices were average and take advantage of the happy hours. Very efficient boarding and disembarkation. Arrived and departed ports on time and a smooth sail for the duration of the cruise.

Cabin Review

Interior Stateroom

Large interior stateroom. Very large plenty of space for 3 people and luggage. Toilet stopped flushing twice but it was quickly fixed by maintenence staff. Bedding was unclean on the sofa bed. Overall cleanliness of the stateroom was satisfactory. No tea or coffee facilities which would have been a bonus and no elemis products for the majority of the cruise.

Port Reviews

Kotor

Beautiful place. We got the hop on hop off bus €20 which was good value for money with very helpful guides and a walking tour included. Beautiful coastline and fjord like scenery sailing in and out

Can't wait to return.

Monaco (Monte Carlo)

Formula 1 walking tour. Value for money, very informative enjoyed the visit to see the royal car collection.
