Lovely ship with good furnishingds. Cabin size a bit tight to what i am use to. Like that there are no children. Thousht the band idea was good, less fussy than a card. Staff all supurb and could not do enough for you. More hot water places needed. Sometimes the ladies toilets were difficult to find and access.

The cabin was extremely noisy due to its closeness to whatever on board was above us. There were numerous occasions during various hours of the day and night where the banging and movement of what appeared to be heavy objects being moved. This was certainly not another room. We were also told that there was Tea and Coffee in the room but there was not so we were very disappointed to find that the Tea and Coffee which was free as advertised had to be ordered via room service where a delivery fee of 10 dollars per visit was applicable. This resulted in the items being cold on more than one occasion which we did complain about. I have therefore rated the service 2 and 1 as result of the above. The room itself was basic but clean and tidy. The towels were not changed or the room attended too on the last two days before departure which again was poor.

This was our third Virgin Voyage, first time on this ship.
There have been a few changes with this new ship, such as more comfortable chairs at The Dock Bar area and later opening for the coffee bar in The Galley Restaurant which we found beneficial.
The food was good, at times we felt a little rushed in the restaurants, however when we asked for a delay in serving the next course it was never an issue.
We really enjoyed the cruise, sea days were very relaxing, and we did not have any issues getting a sun bed.
Miami Port is under construction, the roads were very busy and there were around 8 ships in port so you need to give yourself plenty of time when travelling to the port.
We stayed at the Pullman Miami Airport hotel, it was fine for the night.
