First cruise ( apart from an educational cruise on the Uganda in 1968!)

Loved every aspect of it. Ship was a little dated but not a detraction in any way. All crew fantastic and couldn't do more to make your holiday a great experience. Food was excellent, tasty and varied and super choice of restaurants. Minimal queuing for tables even at bisy times. Able to choose your won table or sharing. Even had lobster and steak on a couple of the menus. Though food in the waiter service Lido similar to the buffets, was beautifully presented. All-inclusive had extensive choice of drinks and cocktails, all branded. Waiter service very thorough. Cabin roomy and cleaned to a high standard. Turn down service with nightly chocoltae on the pillow. Brilliant entertainment, specially the shows. Amazing value for money ! Those who find fault with the Marella Dream probably find fault in everything.
