The cabin , 17000 looked straight out onto the front of the ship so had a covered balcony for obvious reasons, you could open two windows on it to look out and it had two chairs and a table.
The main bedroom was nice, they only change the bed once a week so you will have the same sheets all week, i guess to keep the laundry from being stowed under with washing. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed a movie every night before we went to sleep from the tv in the bedroom and all our movies were free, we found something you did not have to pay for!!!
The main room had a sofa, table, two chairs, bar area, nespresso machine, mini bar and all sorts of glasses and glass shelving.
The second bedroom had a sofa/ sofa bed and separate small bathroom with shower, i think these courtyard villas would be ideal for families as the small room would be ideal for children.

You can walk into town from the ship and do things that you pay a fortune for on the organised walking excursions

Naples

Nice town. $15 per person on shuttle bus,

Marseille

You tender from the ship as it is a small port, nice town, expensive shops as its an area for the rich and famous

Cannes

Been on many occasions as most Med trips stop here as they make the most money on the excursions into Rome which is around 90 minutes away by coach. You can walk into Civitavecchia, nice little town with shops bars and coffees shops

Rome (Civitavecchia)

Shuttle bus into Livorno is $15 per person if not on a trip to Pisa/Florence/Amalfi

Florence (Livorno)

It was a great cruise in areas if you managed to escape the masses, there were no nightly shows as the theatre only seats 700 so they are repeated over and over as the cruise goes on, you also have to reserve a seat in the venues otherwise you will not be guaranteed entry, if you are Haven you can ask concierge to book all the shows and restaurant venues for you, they escort you to the theatre so you do not have to queue and there is reserved seating for Haven Guests up to 10 minutes before the show starts then they are released to those who did not book.Not sure i am keen on music blasting out at all times by the pool as it would be nice just to relax and for a ship this size it is lacking in swimming pools with two small pools situated together at the bottom of the slide for everyone in regular cabins, we had our our tiny pool and two jacuzzis in the courtyard area which was an escape.
