Greek Isles & Venice, 27th October 2012

We had a fabulous cruise on the Splendour of the Seas around the Greek islands. We visited places such as Mykonos, Santorini, Chania and Corfu to name but a few. The itinerary was excellent and every port was very pretty. We would do this cruise again as there are so many different things you can do in each port.  The ship was brilliant. We have recently been on Voyager and Independence of the Seas and loved the big ships, so we thought that Splendour may be a bit of a let down, but we were wrong. It was perfect. The main advantage was the solarium which had an indoor poor with a glass roof and lovely sun beds. This was a godsend on sailing days as it was too breezy to stay outside. In the Solarium it was a lovely temperature and should have been for children over the age of 16 however a few younger children did creep into the pool when no one was looking.  The entertainment was good especially the Beatle tribute band. We weren't so fussy on the puppet show I actually fell asleep during the show.  The food was excellent as always with Royal Caribbean as was the service, in particular the waiter and assistant waiter. There was a fabulous chocolate midnight buffet one evening - it was amazing. Pity we were so full after dinner that we couldn't do it justice. The staff were very courteous and pleasant during our cruise and we loved every minute of it. We would highly recommend the Greek Island cruise and especially Royal Caribbean's Splendour of the Seas.
