With all the bad press we had read before our first cruise we were worried we had made the choice of cruise ship. We shouldn't have worried! From the efficient check in to speedy disembarkation we had just the most wonderful time.

The ship is very high spec and is kept sparkling clean. The cabins were well appointed and had very roomy wardrobe space and well designed shower rooms. Our balcony stateroom had just been given a very welcome set of relining chairs which we made full use of. The room service was outstanding, our children's clutter was tidied for them more than once each day, much to my embarrassment!

Our children loved the activities available, the freedom of eating at the Frankie's Diner throughout the day and of course the pools. We enjoyed the lectures, the art talks and high quality evening entertainment. With only a couple of exceptions, the performances were of a very high standard.
