The Mediterranea is a beautifully appointed ship. Marble everywhere including the salon floors. The food is wonderfully prepared and served by excellent waiters. I had a balcony cabin on 8th floor it was spacious and well laid out for two people with plenty of storage space. Bathroom was a good size. The staff was at all times friendly and helpful. One of the nice things: You arrive at the ports early in the morning and have all day for your tours. There was music in all the lounges at night, fun gambling and lots to do on the ship if you wanted to play games on the decks. Improvement: They could get better entertainment for the main show at night -- it was sometimes good, sometimes not. But if you didn't like the main stage entertainment they did have nice music in the lounges. All in all it was a wonderful cruise.
