Cabin: Deluxe Ocean-View Verandah Stateroom

I just want to say that anyone who can find fault with this ship or her staff are just impossible to please.

My husband and I and 3 other couples spent 12 days on board and they were all wonderful. Our rooms were always clean and well looked after, laundry was cleaned and pressed and returned to us in the same condition.

The food in the Manhattan Dining room was wonderful every night, we didn't go anywhere else to eat because we didn't need to. We sat at the same table every night and had excellent service, (table 207). The waiters and wine stewards were all friendly but we have a soft spot for the ones who served us, due to us having a late running happy hour most nights we were late getting to dinner and often were the last to leave. No-one complained or got upset with us just happy to be of service. Had burgers by the pool for lunch a couple days but mostly ate at the Lido for breakfast and lunch and it was always good. I must have gained 10lbs from all the bread pudding and sauce, it was soooo good.

Deluxe Ocean-View Verandah Stateroom

Cabin VE

Cabin 5071Cabin was great, had enough clost space and cupboard space. Bathroom was a decent size. View from verandah was good if you didn't care that lifeboats are directly below, just look out at the sea not down at the ship below you. All in all I found it to be great considering the stories I've heard about tiny staterooms.Good value for the money.
