Been on several Thomson cruises and have enjoyed every one of them. Chose Thomson Celebration this time for the itinerary and particularly wanted to visit Malta. Flight from Bristol to Dubrovnik was excellent as was the transfer to the ship. Cabin on deck 3 (number 560) was spotless and spacious with shower room having had a refurb. Single beds in L shape. Plenty of wardrobe space. Packed swimwear and cover up in hand luggage as I know there can be a delay in cases arriving at cabin and didn't want to waste sunbathing/outdoor time still dressed in travel clothes. Not sure what time cases arrived but they were there when we went up to our cabin late afternoon in readiness for the drill. Our cabin was at the very back of the ship on deck 3 right opposite the Medical Centre. The position was very noisy from about 4.30.am! Not sure exactly what the noise was though but sounded like trolleys being dragged! No chance of a lie in! Next time would definitely pay not to have this cabin and would probably chose to go to middle of ship. This however did not spoil us enjoying the ship. Staff were excellent. Our cabin was kept spotless. We ate in the Meridian for breakfast (had table for 2 - not fussy on making small talk with strangers over breakfast!) and also for our evening meals where we did not mind sharing with others. Food excellent. Met some lovely, interesting people over the week. Booked Mistrals Restaurant for my birthday.......absolutely superb and well worth the money!
