Having read quite a few
negative comments about this ship I wasn't expecting too much. However, the
cruise turned out to be excellent!
The check-in at Southampton was totally pain free and took about 3 minutes
because we had already used the on-line check in. We were directed to our cabin
where the cabin maid (Lysette) introduced herself immediately and explained a
few things of importance. Her service throughout the cruise was excellent.
Our luggage was delivered after about 3 hours so we had plenty of time to unpack
and change before dinner.
The food on this ship is limited to 3 courses but is very good in both the
restaurant and the Windjammer cafe. Our waiter in the restaurant was Darwin who
always polite, helpful and recommended different dishes each day.
Room service was spot on. We tended to have breakfast in the cabin and we
received a phone call each time informing us breakfast was on its way.
I have been on more expensive cruises in the past, with other major cruise
lines, where children were left to run free and at some times were extremely
disruptive late at night. The Legend has a policy whereby all children must be
in their cabins by midnight which was a very welcome curfew!!
The only negative thing I can say is that our walking trip in The Channel
islands was cancelled so we spent our time in St Peter port which is boring and
expensive
I would recommend this ship. It is good value for your money.
