Sail Date: Jan 2009
Traveled with children

EMBARKATION: We lined up at check in at 1415pm, Check in had already commenced. After 45 minutes we were checked in and then only had to wait another 10 minutes to board the boat. So that was no big deal with the small kids 3 and 5 handling that one quite well.

CABIN. We had three cabins one of them a 4 berth with 2 kids. The staff were friendly although were few and hard to find apart from out steward, Who gracefully apologized on the tardiness and stained sheets which were promtly changed. However the boat had no spare queen size dooners for us, Just two singles nothing could be done there despite booking over 6 months ago. Word of advice you will need to request these in advance on your bookings. Towels and anything that was requested through our steward was done effortlessly.

Air conditioning was absolutely terrible and too hot. Most nights we were up on deck till late to cool down. Crew did nothing to look at the situation either.

Cabin Review

Cabin G

We were in cabin 6179 on deck 6, which was just above a lot of noise being made at 5am by the Harbour pilot prior to docking. Despite only two doors away from ,main mid lifts and corridor it was a relatively quiet location.
