If you love a beautiful Mediterranean port every day this is a great cruise. The ship seemed a bit smaller than past cruises (which is good for ports and meeting people), and older, however, the crew worked so hard to provide a nice experience. Staff were always cleaning (the ship is immaculate), and our cabin attendant, Donny, was the best ever. He always remembered ice at happy hour, the paper Compass, and any other special requests and always with a smile. The ship could have had better activities in the afternoon when you return from an excursion (so much trivia and napkin folding!) The headliners were fine. The food was terrific and lots of choices in the Windjammer. It seemed like everyone, crew and guests, were so happy to be back and travelling.
Our favorite shore excursions were biking in beautiful Palma de Mallorca and seeing the villages of Cinque Terra.
Definitely worth a step up from regular ocean view cabin to 1M: Spacious Oceanview. It was a full window of glass instead of a porthole and the room has a large couch to sit on. The bathroom, especially the shower, is a bit small, but the room itself is very nice with lots of closet space and shelves, coffee table and desk.
