We enjoyed this smaller scale ship and the personal attention we received, November 6, 2010
Reviewer: edibug
Pros: There were no "extra" costs for drinks and tips
Cons: The entertainment was limited to three acts (mostly singing)
Date of cruise: October 20, 2010
Departure port: Civitavecchia
Region visited: Mediterranean
Cabin category: Suite
Cabin number: 107
Good for children: No
Good for teenagers: No
Overall, the quality of service and attention to detail were really good. The anticipation began when we received our travel box from Seabourn which included leather luggage tags and travel itinerary. When we arrived at the ship, we immediately felt welcomed as we were greeted at the ship with a personal steward to take our luggage aboard and to show us around. Our cabin was large with a full seating area, walk-in closet and bathroom. Awaiting us were the fully stocked minibar, fruit plate and a bucket of chilled champagne! We also received an invitation to join two of the entertainers for dinner the first night to welcome us to the cruise and to answer any questions we might have about what to see and do. The servers knew us by name and by the end of the cruise, we knew them by name. The captain and his officers were often on deck and willing to interact with the guests. e have taken cruises on the mega-ships before and never experienced the sense of family that the Seabourn crew offered. They really live up to the slogan, "This is my yacht."

Pros: Rooms and service
Cons: Staff in training
Departure port: civitecchia
Region visited: Europe
Cabin category: Outside
Cabin number: 108

Would not use this particular ship again. Believe staff was in training and that experienced staff were sent to newer ships. Would not recommend cruising along Southern Italian coast as the seas are rougher and tendering is more difficult.
