Unfortunately I only booked the Sun Princess cruise leaving Sydney on March 17,2018 to see Fiordlands and the weather was too bad for the ship to go there, so that was very disappointing. The swell and winds didn't seem that bad, but they were too bad so we had another sea day. The weather was too bad to get into Akaroa as well so we missed out on two stops.
The staff as always were excellent, the ship it self was a tad tired but I was told it is going in for a full refurbishment very soon, which will be lovely for the people booking after that.
The food as always was very plentiful, fresh, and colourful. There were a couple of vegetarian options each day which was nice, but a few more would have been really good for me. The buffet was very clean and the staff were very diligent about hand washing which was excellent, I didnt hear of anyone getting a food bug, but there was a lot of coughing going on by the end of the cruise, which could have been because of sleeping in the very dry air conditioning.
I would have liked a drink package that included bottled water, but was told there was a soft drink package but it didnt include bottled water, just soft drinks which was delightful for a diabetic.
