Sail Date: Feb 2011
Cabin: Large Outside Stateroom (fully obstructed views)

The Sea of Cortez is a new cruise area and the shore excursions will need some upgrading to make them value for money.

Food selection was quite good but the food service level in the main dinning room was more rushed than that received on HAL ships Prinsendam & Ryndam.The main dinning room was understaffed compared to those ships and service staff were very rushed.Drinks service was very slow.

Entertainment was quite good with lounge acts professional and big stage shows delivered with plenty of polish and verve.
