Wow what a cruise ship. After coming off this ship I think this cruise has just set the standards for the next generation of cruise ships. So why is this ship so good. Hard to put a finger on it but it has soul, is well thought out and the designers and planners have taken everything into account and listened to their guests feedback. The main things that I liked are, the furnishings off the ship, very retro and sheek. A lot of wow. I loved the speciality restaurants and because they are all in the same area makes very easy to find. Also loved the bar where they are all assembled to have pre dinner drinks. The pool deck is great. No plastic sun loungers and loved the areas on the top deck where you can actaully get in the shade. The lawn grass and glass blowing are in my opinion gimmicks and they most probably could have used the space better but are something different from the usual cruise experience. The cabins were spacious and you could tell they had been designed by a woman. Full size mirror, a hairdryer that works,cotton buds in the bathroom, a great TV system that doubles up as an IPOD. Overall I loved this ship and is a great ship for people who are looking for a cruise experience with Brits on a premioum american cruise line
