"Brazil Sailaway" - March 2009

Reviewed By: Willmot, Streetly, SUTTON COLDFIELD on 19th Jun 2009
Cruise Line: Island Cruises	Times cruised before: 3-5
Cruise Ship: Island Escape	Sailed: March, 2009
Destination: Transatlantic	Age: 65+
Cabin: Balcony	Occasion: Birthday

Firstly, have to say that the ship was in desperate need of a refurbishment. We enjoyed eating in the 'Island Restaurant' (buffet) where the choice of food was excellent. For a one off (Birthday treat) we ate in the 'Oasis Restaurant' which was £25 per couple inclusive of one bottle of wine! All the restaurant staff on the ship were very attentive. Edgar our cabin steward looked after us well during the cruise and our cabin was kept clean and tidy. No complaints there. The entertainment and staff did an excellent job. The drinks were reasonably priced for a cruise ship. On the whole we were very impressed with the Cruise and found it good value for the money that we paid!! We look back on this holiday with nothing but 'happy memories'. Thank you. From: Chris and Alan Willmot, 25 Carlton Croft, Streetly, Sutton Coldfield B74 3JT
Quality of Food
Ate mostly in the 'Island Restaurant' - the choice of food was amazing and there was nothing that we did not like!
Entertainment
We enjoyed all the shows - with the exception the elderly Scots entertainer who played the bag pipes.
Shore Excursions
Our favourite excusrion was 'Christ the Redeemer' in Rio. Least favourite stop was Ilheus.
Staff
The Cruise Director was our favourite member of staff and his assistant Mark. We enjoyed taking part in the Daily Hoy Bingo and Sun Bed Stretch!!

Onboard Activities
Plenty to keep you occupied even during six days at sea!
Cabins
The cabin was what we expected for a cruise ship of that size.
