Newest Review: ... It was a late booking so the price was great ( a present so I don't know exactly what the cost was - I'm guessing just over £1000 for the two of us) and was with Ocean Village. We had a 2 berth outside cabin and were told we could be upgraded if another cabin was free - lovely and clean,fridge, great cleaning service, comfy twin beds ...... The staff were from all over the world - male & female and all really pleasant and helpful. The food was fantastic - loads of fresh food and a great deal of choice. The entertainment was very varied and I think suited everyone - tightrope walkers to solo singers - or if you wanted a night in the ... more |

For months I've been perusing the Island Escape brochure and popping into the internet to familiarise myself.... it has been the focus of my holiday thoughts as I worked away, saving for the dream.
