We were very wary before we embarked on this cruise due to the mixed reviews we read on this site however we absolutely loved it and can`t wait to make a return trip. The ship was absolutely stunning ! We love Italy and all the Italian details made us feel at home. We were very surprised by the size of the cabin and the amount of storage available. The shower was also a nice surprise. My only moan was that the pillows were awful. Our cabin boy Teguh was very pleasant and helpful.Everyone who knows me knows that I am the fussiest eater around so for me to say I loved the food is a very high compliment indeed. Our waiter in The Black Crab, Arya, was excellent and extremely helpful at adjusting small things on the menu for me like roast potatoes instead of mashed etc. We ate breakfast in the buffet every morning as the choice was amazing. Yes it was busy but we always managed to find a seat. Most days we had lunch there as well as the pizza was always fresh and the desserts to die for. Entertainment was good especially The Beatles tribute night. Every member of staff we met from the cleaners to the captain always had a friendly greeting so people who moaned about this not being the case should maybe try meeting people with a smile! To sum it up - a very relaxing, enjoyable trip which was excellent value for money.
