Positives: Food was top class, plenty of sun loungers and decent sized number of pools. Drinks sensibly priced and good service. Reception spot on with any issues, cabin and balcony clean and as expected.Good that all disembarkation is on one level. Loved the Limelight club and the Beach house for meals (extra charge).

Negatives: We lost St Maarten and Dominica because of the hurricane which meant we stayed in Barbados an extra night, just moving berth. Then we lost St Kitts because it was too dangerous for the ship to use tenders...and we ended up on the very unpopular Martinique which, while not great, looked like heaven in comparison to St Vincent.

Anyway, ship is huge and carried big numbers of folk which is why you wait ages for a lift. It desperately needs more and a central staircase needs to be added at a refit to allow better movement. Entertainment generally was just ok but seen better on many others ships. Headliners had two good shows and two not so good,but Jimmy James was by far the jewel. The Retreat was over priced, our cabin steward was hopeless and you can't keep tabs of your spends on the tv screen like on other PO vessels. Excursions too, were pricey. Didn't seem tone many extra curricular activities, but blokes were happy with constant live streaming of PL football in the ship's pub. No deck BBQ or pool games.
