All cabin staff & waiters fantastic. Food at breakfast & Lunch were substantial and plentiful but dinner was not fine dining as would be expected! The international cheese selection was very poor and of meagre proportions. It was served with nuts, 2 cashews only and fruit, half a dried apricot. Biscuits for cheese were limited to 2 and even these ran out after 2 days! The chef put more into decorative presentation than substance. Perhaps he practised on a small plate. I never saw a main dinner meal that looked anything like those in the promotions. We were on the Emerald Sun at short notice as the Emerald Shy was caught up in low water on its previous cruise. I wonder if the catering on Sky would have been better. All in all it wouldn't stop me from cruising with Emerald again, but I will take a few biscuits in my luggage.

Cabin Review

Cabin Grand Balcony Suite

Very Good. It would have been nice for someone to have shown us all the hidden places. Shelves behind the mirror in the bathroom. Cupboard under the sink. A cupboard in the balcony area which really was of no use as it had no shelves or hooks. Even when we found these after talking to other passengers, there still was not really enough space to put all personal belongings.
