rave review on Island Escape

Reviewed By: Black, Barnsley on 27th Nov 2008
Cruise Line: Island Cruises Times cruised before: 6-10
Cruise Ship: The Island Escape Sailed: June, 2007
Destination: Mediterranean Age: 56-65
at short notice 4 days! we booked a cruise on the island-cruises-summer-holidays/">island escape in june. we were pleasantly surprised to not be on bottom deck and to have an outside cabin .when we arrived the embarkation was very quick and easy. straight to the cabin but turning back the sheets they had not been changed.so i complained eventually got it sorted out and bottle of wine and fruit left in cabin. the rest of the cruise was brilliant good food good entertainment and lovely ports of call .captain took us to Carrera in Italy instead of livorno carrara was far nicer.the restaurants on board were fine and we always managed to get a table for two.the food was always nice and thre was a good selection. he cabins were small but adequate. the whole cruise was excellent value for the money and this was our second time on Island Escape and would go again.having done quite a few cruises on different ships this is still value for money

Opinion: Agree Comment by meller, cleveleys blackpool (27 Nov 08 19:49) about this REVIEW
whilst I agree with the comments you have made, thing's have changed with the island escape! Please read my review faulty tower's on sea. I notice your cruise date was June 2007. Like yourselves we cruised on the escape 2007, 2008, and could not find any faults at all, we could not praise this company enough, telling all friends and relatives it was FANTASTIC! Now after the venetian cruise, November 2008 things have change a great deal, and not for the better. Good luck and happy cruising.
