Positives-Amazing weather. Best butler. Great food in Sette Mare and Prime 7. Nice pool & aft infinity pool lovely but hard to access.Fun experience in Asian restaurant. Entertainment - such very good shows-loved the Opera Girls. Fun cruise director. Love David Nevin's show. Liked breakfast in Sette Mare.

Negatives- Cabin(see below). No outdoor bar. Bad excursions with crummy buses(they were only 1/2 full and should have used smaller more modern with legroom etc.) Impersonal, robotic service on deck & lounges. Two ports changed because of conditions(1 meter seas-seemed overly conservative). We had no excursion planned for Portofino and when changed to Genoa the ship only accommodated people who had booked tours & didn't provide a shuttle to Portofino. Chartreuse was so disappointing- timing way off, service awkward & not professional. Would nave enjoyed a ship formal night.Things like caviar at breakfast on Sun-we just stumbled upon and felt it might have been better communicated.

Bad communication about any changes-seemed guest's responsibility to study newsletter for new info.
