Ocean Village Holidays

MV Ocean Village

Your Rating:Four Stars
Reviewed by: Marion Dwason
# previous cruises: 2
Date of Trip: February 25, 2005
Itinerary: Caribbean

Overview
overall the cruise was nice but..... it felt like you were in a cafe when getting your food, you had to queue and then find a table to eat your food. if you paid extra you could eat in the bistro but I thought it was a bit cheeky to expect people to pay again once they were onboard the ship, the entertainment was very good and the cruise ship crew were really nice,but if you want something a bit more luxurious then ocean village is not the cruise to go for.

Public Areas
The public areas were always very clean and whatever time of day or night you were walking about members of staff would be cleaning,we liked the plantation bar because it seemed to have a very good atmosphere about it, the pool's were clean and the nice thing was that the children had a pool of there own

Food and Service
The food again was nice but I think the self service was not something we would choose to do again there was a buffet where you could go last thing at night where they served snacks

Cabins
The cabin was very spacious. it was a indoor cabin but lots of room and tea and coffee was always available in the room

Entertainment
Shows were great and well worth seeing, they did two shows the second repeating the first one

Activities
We just lounged by the pool while on board ship.

Who Goes
No I wouldn't invite any of the passengers to my house there were all really nice people who we spoke to
