Just returned from a stay and cruise fortnight. The first week was in the Grand Hotel in Crete - lovely hotel - food poor
We then left for the ship - extremely well organised and very quickly on the Ocean Village - first time cruisers - the ship looked huge.
The cabin was a good size and very very well equipped with lots of storeage space, a comfortable bed and a window view of one of the lifeboats!! No complaints with the cabin nor Chris who made it up etc.
Ate once in the Bistro and twice in the La Luna all meals fab including Lobster Thermidor in La Luna and the service was excellent. Other evenings ate in the Waterfront and had breakfast here too - definate must fried bread and omelettes made to order.
The ship was spotless and we arrived in all the ports on time Dubrovinik, Corfu, Kephalonia, Katakolon and Athens would definately recommend them all, we didnt do any trips just our own thing. Unfortunately it was raining in Corfu and the shops were shut being a Sunday but still enjoyed very much.
Took a few days to navigate around the ship but that was fun too. Lots of quizzes etc
Informative about what was going on and the night before we left we packed our cases and put them outside our door and the next time we saw them was in Birmingham and we had a seats on the plane so there was no queuing at Heraklion airport.
All in all a lovely surprise and would do it again.
