Traveled with children

Well I have just returned from my first ever cruise, and I have to say in the main I loved it. Even with a very rough crossing across BOB

Car Parking

Smooth and quick. We joined a queue, waited around 10 minutes before being directed to front of terminal where our cases were loaded onto a trolley and whisked away, the car was then whisked away in the opposite direction

Cabin Review

Junior Mini Suite with Balcony and Bath/Shower

Cabin CB

Good sized Hanging space for clothes, with separate wardrobe for folded items. Plenty of coat hangers too

Bathroom - fine - a little dated - but had proper sized bath, and excellent power shower. Leave your shower gell at home, as bathroom equipment with full sized "the White Company" shower gel.

Nice comfy Bathrobes

Huge soft Towels and plenty of them

Plenty of Lighting - both overhead and lamps

2 Tv's - but this was a bit of a waste as you could not really have them both on at the same time

Plenty of cups and glasses - Tea/coffee/milk/biscuits replenished everyday

Bed was good sized and comfortable

Sofa bed (for my daughter) was good sized - bigger than a single

Balcony - a little small but fine for 2, 3 of us could sit with a squeeze

Full bottle of champagne and chocs on embarkation

"canapes" once a week - Ryvita with pepperoni - not worth it to be honest

Reasonable sized Fridge

Free Safe in room as well
