Well I thought I would also wright a positive review about the Pacific Eden especially after reading so many bad reviews . I have to say I was quite concerned before we set sail. I am very pleased to say we had a great time . Myself and husband including children aged 11 , 13 really enjoyed it . For the $$ we paid we could not complain. The food choice was more than adequate , the only complaint was the meal size in the Waterfront , Dragon lady restaurants , as my husband was still hungry, as they are small meals . The pool the bars and the shows where all great . The kids loved the Edge which offered loads of fun outside activities such as a flying fox zip line and titanic experience . I also went to the gym which was also good . The port calls were great, 4 different ones over 7 days . We chose to do our own things at them all which was very easy to do . Spent some lovely days on some really gorgeous beaches , especially in Sabang . Overall this family cruise did reach our expectations and we would defiantly be happy to cruise on this ship again . I really think some people complain over little things must have very high expectations, and possibly very fussy over somethings . This is not a 5 star boat you know that when you book , so please take that into account when making a review .
