Sail Date: Sep 2018
Cabin: Interior Stateroom

Sinfonia is an older ship and it shows. Décor is dated and some areas are not large enough for the capacity (theatre, buffet). As Australian cruisers, we found the atmosphere to be lacking compared with our experiences cruising closer to home which probably reflects more on the high proportion of European passengers than the ship itself.

Room was pretty standard. Well designed, plenty of storage. Shower was very small, with a curtain which sticks to you. Our cabin (8147) seemed to have water under the bathroom floor (maybe a water proofing issue?), which meant that you could hear water when you walked on it.

Entertainment we found to be lacking. Really nothing in the way of program through the day other than pool deck games. No destination briefings. At night there was music in a most of the bars. We enjoyed the piano/guitar duo in the Buddha Bar which was a bit more upbeat.

Port Reviews

Split

We organised a walking tour directly through Split Walking Tours. Port is a short walk to through the marina to the old town.

Mykonos

Only had a few hours here at night (ship docked 8pm-3am). We were charged to get a boat from port to the town where we found a bite to eat at a local restaurant, then back to the ship.
