Excellent cruise, the fact that every day you wake up to a new view is amazing! The staff were very helpful (the only comment is that for many, the first language was not English and this caused a few problems).

The food was nice, the food in the Oasis restaurant was excellent - both the a la carte and the special menu. The wine waiters/ess were very knowledgeable and eager to help. The food in both the beachcomber and Island Restaurants was well cooked and tasty. There was an option of fries with all meals - but only if that was your choice - there was always the option of freshly cooked potatoes and/or vegetables. We were not disappointed!

Cabin was nice - double bed (as we were on honeymoon), lots of hanging / storage space and fresh flowers. Very clean - cabin stewardess did a fantastic job of cleaning every day.

Went to 3 shows - great! Advertised in ship paper the day before with reminders through day. The performers were great - very professional despite being quite young. Fantastic singing voices - would appeal to most people. All the reviews and comments we heard from passengers were very positive!

Met a few really nice couples - as with most holiday destinations, most keep themselves to themselves! The couples we met were of similar age & interests and we have swapped internet addresses / tel no's to keep in touch!
