![Not as good as last year]()
When we arrived shipside we were not welcomed as if it was a luxury experience and had to struggle aboard with our suitcases.
The room was very noisy all day and long into the evening as we were just below the gym area. It was a very comfortable room with a sea view, but being on the 13th deck there was a huge overhang which hampered the view and we hadnt been made aware of either the noise issue or the restricted view.
We couldn't secure a booking at any restaurant until we complained about it near the end of the cruise. It seemed that loads of groups had booked up everything and we weren't the only ones complaining that we couldn't get availability at any restaurant at any time.
The comedians weren't funny at all and at the last gig I don't believe anyone there laughed once. The musicians were the same one almost every night and she seemed to have issues every single night and so only sang a one or two songs.
We felt the food in the individual restaurants wasn't the quality of our previous cruise and were quite disappointed with the menu. The galley was generally good though. We also felt the entertainment wasn't as good as our previous Virgin cruise.
Maybe we had high expectations as we had been a Virgin cruise before. We felt considering this was a cruise where most folk were 'indoors' most of the time Virgin could have tried a bit harder with the activities as if you dont like zumba or karaoke you are pretty much stuck.
Not sure I would pick Virgin again

The food is incredible, especially Extra Virgin restaurant. The takeaway food is also amazing, the sushi boxes are fresh and tasty.
Love the no kids element! Great atmosphere - it's what you make of it, you can find an area on the ship that suits your vibe.

![Faeces]()
Firstly we had back pain issues but our brilliant cabin boys sorted that out with a topper.
The toilet regularly blocked and multiple attempts to get the suction to work were unsuccessful with the bowl alarmingly filling up to the top.
The major issue is a significant human faecal smell at three places at the back of the ship, flutes, vista, down stairs 5 at latitude and the squid and anchor bar on 7, The smell occurs intermittently but when in full flow! We left as soon as possible otherwise gagging would ensue. I pointed this out to the customer service who could not care less. Eventually I spoke to restaurant manager who said he would get back to me with a report , nothing was forthcoming. He said this was the first time he had heard about it, which is a blatant untrueth as Facebook is awash with reposts from several people on the boat. The staff in vista are brilliant but I feel sorry for them working in this environment.
The preparation handling and consumption of food is potentially hazardous and denial is disingenuous.
Mercifully, after a reconisce of vista restaurant ,the smell had abated on the last night ,so we could eat in the best restaurant.
