Did not know what to expect as we are first time cruisers, but did a lot of research on the net to get an idea of what the ship was like. First impressions were fantastic, had a spa in the room, did not expect that. Staff were fantastic during the entire cruise, worth every dollar they get, could not get over their polite manners, even when some rude people think they don't have to say please or thank you. Can't believe some people's manners.

All dining options were fantastic, ate at all including dinner and lunch at the pinnacle grill, and the italian(can't remember the name), some waits maybe 5 mins, but no where as long as some people say in some other reviews. have to remember 1800 people wanting to eat in a 1 - 2 hour window, people have to be realistic!

cruise was aimed at an older age group but that was okay as had some good laughs with them at different times. Missed a port in Fiji as we had to divert around a incoming cyclone, that was understandable, better safe than sorry, seas weren't to bad because of the captains decision, could still have a beer at any of the bars without spilling a drop!
