Joci
The best part: The ship is lovely, most of the crew are kind and helpful. On the whole I'm satisfied!
Could be better: There are very few pools and they are very small. They are constantly full (mostly with families with small children). The adults-only pool is small and crowded too. Even if you can get in, you can only stand in one spot in the water… Bathing properly, or swimming even a few metres, is impossible. I think this is worth pointing out to passengers!
Our guest
The best part: Rome
Could be better: Getting into town in Ibiza was disorganised. There were no taxis; we had to wait an hour for one.
