Vision of the Seas Review

Additional details
Had a lovely time on this ship, this was our first ever cruise and we enjoyed the entire voyage. Embarkation and Disembarkation was very well organised.The ship was very clean and staff worked hard to keep it that way, we have stayed in 4 star hotels where the food is good but the food on this ship was far better even in the Windjammer Cafe, lots of choice even for the fussiest of eaters. We found the ship's excursions were a bit pricey so when we arrived at our destinations we went ashore and did our own thing which was better for us as we could take our time looking round. The ships entertainment was excellent there was something for everyone to enjoy, you would find it very hard to be bored. The pool deck was also excellent as it had 4 hot tubs which were really enjoyable, the pool itself was a little on the small side but we didn't find this to be a problem, plenty of sunbeds for everyone, also loved the fact that the pool attendant removed towels that had been placed on them after half an hour of them not being used to make it fair for everyone. (Think all hotels should do this). There was also a big screen TV that showed a variety of films every day. Our stateroom was cleaned twice a day which was lovely. We would recommend this ship to everyone. We would like to Thank Royal Caribbean International for making our first ever cruise unforgettable and will certainly book with them again.
Cabin Review
Large Interior Stateroom
Plenty of wardrobe and drawer space, Nice big comfortable bed to sleep in, Room cleaned to a very high standard. Flat screen TV which you could tune into the morning show to watch the Cruise Director Rich and Entertainment Manager Daniel tell you all about the different activities that were happening that day, also you were given a Cruise Compass everyday so you knew where and what time these events were happening. Top tip - take a small illuminated battery operated clock with you if you have an inside cabin as it's hard to tell whether it's daylight as there are no windows.
Port Reviews
Cannes
We disembarked the ship at port and did our own thing
Santorini
Did our own thing once we tendered over to Santorini
Kusadasi
Didn't like this port of call no sooner had we disembarked the ship, we were hounded from shop owners trying to sell us things and very rude to you when you said you weren't interested, this was not a very pleasant experience, we should have been allowed to browse at our own leisure without being harassed all the time.
Rome (Civitavecchia)
Did our own thing
Florence (Livorno)
Did our own thing
Barcelona
Only had enough time to Embark the Ship
Athens (Piraeus)
Did our own thing
Positano (Amalfi)
Did our own thing we went on a short boat trip to Amalfi and was astounded by all the little streets full of shops, we had pizza and lasagne whilst there and both were excellent. Beautiful place definately worth another visit.
