Chose this cruise as travelling with friends it was their first cruise and wanted Barbados,and it had islands we hadn't been to before.had 2 sitting in the Oriental which was lovely,looked after by elvisto,and carmo .like the adult pool through the spa weather was great .I would go on the azura again .the play house put on some very good shows I especially liked the show dusty,you can walk through Brodie's bar and Casio to get to it.the late night place to be is Manhattan bar where the put on some shows with comedians and singers ,then dancing to a DJ .the Malabar has a lovely ambiance, the devour is lovely .they had bingo on every day sometimes twice a day for the first week,which I enjoy ,shame it didn't continue for the second week.the self service stations were OK bit busy on change over days .the reception can be a bit busy and have to que for awhile at different times.
