I am going to make two reviews for this cruise. One as an 'adult' couple travelling and the other one based on travelling with our children and grandchildren. Review 2 has already been published!
Two years ago we took a 5 night Mediterranean cruise with RCI out of Malaga on the Navigator of the Seas. This time we did a 4 night short cruise to Portugal on Adventure of the Seas. I have to say how sorry I am to see the drop in standards and quality in such a short period.
Embarkation was simple and well organised as last time and we were on board and having lunch in the Windjammer by 12.30. Ground staff at Mlaga port were very helpful. Disembarkation was equally good with my request for a later time being given with no problems at all.
The Cabin was very clean with more than sufficient space for everything we brought with (and there was plenty!). Would have liked a bigger table on the balcony as it was a bit small for eating, etc. Very comfortable bed. Excellent lighting for make up(always my issue in hotels, ships, etc.) Full length mirror. Missed the complimentary bathroom products and the towel animals each night. Bathroom small but functional. Low water pressure in sink. Rusty waste bin in the bathroom that rattled on the rough sea night. Plenty of wardrobe space and hangers. No alcholol in the mini bar. Hump cabin which was fine and although lost view in one direction wasn't really an issue for us. Also, nearish to lifts and stairs, but didn't have any problems with noise, children, etc. Would book this cabin again.
