Boarded the ship in Valencia. Very glamorous ship, usually cruise P and O Australia. Cabin on fifth deck was excellent. No swell noticed at all. Would not like to be on this ship in the height of the season. Ate our evening meals in the restaurant mostly. Pleasant waiting staff, meal sizes were enough for us but family member wasn't happy. Eating in the buffet was an experience. As the previous review noted queue-ing was non existent, push, grab and go with as much food as you could fit on the plate. Smaller plates should be the way to go!

The first night's entertainment was fantastic but went downhill fast and as for the compere! What can we say! Not our style of cruising, frantic pace from go to whoa! Stops every day, disembarking and embarking passengers at every port. On several occasions we had to leave the theatre because the music(!) was so loud. Very little onboard entertainment, obviously because of the language differences. Very expensive shopping on board.
