Good Points
The staff were very helpful and friendly and they always let one know the details of what was going on on the ship everyday. We were also informed of the docking information and the security was excellent. The itinerary was perfect and just gave us a taste of the islands for future visits. The air-conditioning was also good as it was summer and inside was a perfect temperature.

Bad Points
Our cabin was filthy when we arrived and didn't want to start on the wrong foot so dettled it with hot water. The rest of the cabin was grubby. When booking I didn't realise there was a separate menu to choose from so I booked the pre-paid which was boring. The drinks were far too expensive. Their day outing were also too expensive, far cheaper to hire scooters and do it ourselves with a map of the island. The ship had been revamped but still looked unfinished in places.

General Comments
We enjoyed the cruise, the islands were great. The whole idea for us going on the cruise was to see the islands not really the cruise as such but we did have to spend time on the ship so cleanliness was important. The whole concept on Easycruise is fantastic and I really do hope it take off and they improve on their problems as one does this kind of cruise knowing it is not a luxury cruise but a comfortable one. But one tends to think that what you are saving on your cabin price you are paying on having a drink.
Overall I would love to do it again and it is worthwhile but would do my sums before hand and work things out differently first.
