I agree re the condition - I didn't see any wear and tear. It is an older ship so maybe the decor in some places may look more old fashioned but it's spotless. Put it this way - I am booked on two cruises on Spirit next year and can't wait!

Agree about the Vista. I had only been in a veranda before and thought that a Vista might be smaller but the sofa and 'sitting room' area seemed bigger than in a Veranda to me. The location is really handy being near the restaurants and the lifts that take you the pool deck plus there is not a lot of traffic going past. For anyone that cares, the cotton buds turned up on day 3! I'm back home now and very sad!

Correction - we asked about slippers and they have been provided. We found the cotton wool in a frosted glass jar in the bathroom- we had thought it was just part of the decor. So only cotton buds not provided which is hardly a disaster. Sea day today so can't speak of excursions yet. All food so far has been very good but agree it's not outstanding.

Rest assured (so far) anyone due on Spirit. I boarded today and everything is marvellous. Some differences to my last trip (6 years ago!) noted, such as - no slippers, no cotton wool or cotton buds in cabin. However, the crew are so eager to please and welcoming that I am currently luxuriating in my lovely bed and thinking myself very lucky.

Thanks ak1004. I am due to board Spirit next Tuesday for the first time since 2018 (my third trip on her) and your review has reassured me somewhat. I am travelling with a friend who is a Silversea first timer so feel responsible for the success of the trip!
