It was for our 40th anniversary. We had never been on a cruise and we absolutely loved it. We had a wonderful suite at the back of the ship with a large deck. It was spectacular. Of course now we had already raised the bar to the top so we will have to lower it for future cruises, I am sure! But it was worth every dime. The crew were lovely. We knew what we were getting into with an Italian ship vs. American and we wanted the European experience. Almost everyone could speak English, some a little hard to understand, but we worked it out! The ship was gorgeous. A review I read said gaudy, but it was beautiful in my regard. Lots of Murano glass. The food was spectacular, the wait staff exquisite on the 10th deck restaurant, and special cudos to Jenifer. She was exceptional in every way, a good soul in and out. She was very intuitive and kind. Lots of great dancing music. The shows were spectacular, the theatre space was wonderful. My spa experiences were great. I would recommend Esther for a wonderful full body massage. I would absolutely recommend Adella for a pedicure. She was great. I have a hard time with a pedicure as my feet are particularly ticklish. She was able to massage and scrub away and I had no problems with tickling. We had a little trouble with the air-conditioning in our cabin the first day or two, but staff was very attentive and made sure it was fixed. We loved the fresh fruit in our room everyday. The ports of call were great. We didn't get to Katakolon because of bad weather, but we experienced such a great time at the other ports we did not miss it. Of course I would rather have been safe than sorry.
