Sorry readers, the experience was not fantastic. The balcony cabin was well laid out with the the necessary furniture and , most unexpected, a bathtub. There was plenty of hot water and towels always available. The decor was modern and it seemed no expense was spared. Unfortunately the service was not up to the standard of any of the other cruise lines we used.This was not really the fault of the steward who was a pleasant young man and did try to meet all of our requirements but maybe a language difficulty or two many responsibilities for one person.

The general layout of the ship caused difficulties, especially since although the names of the decks were always displayed in the lifts it was not clear exactly where a particular amenity was situated. The bars and dining rooms were again beautifully furnished and each was different in style. The service in the bars was good as the service at our particular dining table during dinner. However, if you went down for other meals chaos reigned. The food was sometimes good and sometimes not so good. Not enough Italian recipes and not it seemed cooked by Italians.

The shows were excellent. Lovely costumes and well rehearsed shows
