We had a wonderful holiday the staff were brilliant, the entertainment was good and the food excellent.
But the bad thing was our room, especially the size of the bathroom it was far too small I nearly fell a couple of times on the high step into the bathroom, you had to practically stand on the toilet to get into the shower, and the room itself was badly designed so I would not recommend this ship but I have been on the Ambience and this was brilliant so don't be put off the company they are well run.

We had a lovely time on our cruise. Our inside cabin was spacious and a very big wardrobe. Bathroom shower was a good size. And our cabin was cleaned to a good standard. We found the crew always helpful and bar staff very friendly. The only negative was mainly set times for the dining room. Our time was 8.15 and couldn’t have a table for 2 . We was on a table for 4 which would have been okay if it wasn’t for the other couple not been very nice especially the male. Also found it very rushed in the dining room with the waiter’s. We didn’t go in every night which was a shame but we enjoyed going to the upstairs buffet and found the food to be excellent. We would definitely go back on the cruise ship like I said the dining room wasn’t very pleasant but sometimes you just have to work around these things .
