Creator's Key Takeaways

For what we paid, which is Β£88 a day, I've got to say it was good. It's nothing to write home about. It's not fabulous, but it's perfectly adequate.

Can you eat healthily on a cruise? Well, yes, absolutely. But, temptation is everywhere. For every Greek yogurt, there's a poolside pizza with your name on it.

The tuna steak was superb and I would definitely recommend this for a healthy option. The side salads were also really good.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Go to the buffet as early as possible to avoid crowds and ensure better selection.
βœ“Book main dining restaurants via the app or in person between 5:30 and 6:30 to secure a spot.
βœ“If you have food intolerances, check the menu boards outside the restaurants beforehand.
βœ“You can order tea and coffee in the main dining room even if they aren't listed on the menu.
