It was our first Cruise and from start to finish we had a wonderful holiday. The staff were very friendly with one or two exceptions. My legs are sore from dancing especially after the 70's night and am still recovering after three days back in Ireland. There were mainly Italian holidaymakers who were very friendly We hooked up for our evenings with different English couples who again were great fun. I found the idea of having to go to the Windjammer for coffee annoying. Overall the standard of hygiene was good and our cabin was kept spotless by VJ at all times. We did not manage to get a lounger at all around the pool so I do think the "hogging" of lounger should be closely monitored in order to give everyone the opportunity to sit in the sun. Thank you for making this a great holiday . We will certainly be returning, hopefully next year
