“We didn't like the Destiny at all! We had a cruise...”

We didn't like the Destiny at all! We had a cruise last year on the Thomson Spirit which we really enjoyed. The dining areas were lovely, the food was excellent and the entertainment was first class. That is why we decided to do another Thomson cruise but it will be the last one we take. The enterainment was not good at all - we've had better at Pontins at much cheaper price! The self service 'restuarant' was cold and not very welcoming. The drinks were ridiculously priced, £7 for a glass of mediocre white wine!! We were offered an all inclusive deal at £ 320 pounds which we didn't take as we're not big drinkers anyway but there were other people who had all inclusive at £49 . It was freezing cold in the Can-Can lounge. I had to wear a cardigan and wrap over my evening dress just to be comfortable.

The toilets kept blocking up and the swimming pool had to be emptied twice because it had been contaminated by sewage - once just as my husband got out which was quite worrying.

The redeeming feature was that the staff were friendly and the weather was very good which made our day trip and days at shore enjoyable.
