Sail Date: Aug 2017

We had booked a saver price, guaranteed stateroom ( superior deluxe balcony ) so we had no idea which room we would be allocated until nearer the time. The cruise was 14 nights to the Mediterranean. Our stateroom A107 was finally allocated the Tuesday before sailing. The room was very nice and we had no complaints. First time we have had a room at the very front of the ship, in fact, we were right above the bridge so our balcony was huge!

Our first impression was...have we just walked into a 5* hotel lobby, the atrium was very nice and a lot better than we had had on other cruise ships. The whole ship was clean, we ate in the buffet and found no issues with any of the food, plenty of selection, plenty of places, tables cleaned immediately etc etc etc

We found all the crew to be very friendly and willing to help. The entertainment in the evenings was good although there were a few 'tribute' acts. In the Limelight restaurant they had Brian McFaddon and another from Boyzone ( think that's what the group were called ) and on the last night in the main theatre was the lead singer from the Hollies who was excellent!

Did not like Naples, thought it was a dirty place

Cannes

Was ok but was not what we expected

Barcelona

Excellent port, sadly we were there on the day of the attack and thankfully missed it by about an hour as we had to be back onboard by 16:30
