Having planned and thought about our cruise with Seabourn for several months, we finally arrived in Rome to board the Seabourn in late October. We were a little nervous since it was windy and cool outside. We had made the decision to arrive by air from the USA on a Saturday and board the plane the same day. We arrived early, but Seabourn allowed us and some other passengers to come on board earlier than expected and waited in a club room with snacks and drinks. That was our first introduction to the excellent service provided by Seabourn. I immediately liked the sparkling look of the Spirit and later learned on the cruise that the ship would be fully refurbished after our cruise disembarked in Lisborn. I am sure it will be even more beautiful for future cruises.

It was windy that day and we were a little unsettled by the swaying of the ship, but after that day, every other day (but the last evening) enjoyed beautiful and calm weather. We entered our room after receiving some ship documents and were so please by the roominess of our cabin. There was plenty of space for all our items and the bathroom was truly luxurious also. Our steward introduced herself and everyone else on the staff was cheery and helpful.

Everything about the service is the dining rooms was truly extraordinary. Everyone would greet you and asked what you wanted or needed. Plates were held for you and taken away when not needed. The food itself was delicious and there were plenty of choices. For dinner I often ate the lighter fare, which was tasty and made me feel that I was not overeating. You could also have as many drinks as you wanted throughout the day. There were also specialty drinks every day. I think it would have been an improvement if Seabourn also served more local fare of the areas visited (a paella dish would have been appreciated).
