Excellent holiday. Food and entertainment very good. Excellent service from cabin stewards to bar staff. Think the premium drinks package should be scrapped and the all inclusive drinks package should include sparkling wine and water. A la carte restaurant very good value. A shame marella is saying goodbye to the spirit.
