Overall the facilities on board the La Belle de Cadix were excellent. It was a shame that we did not move from Seville until theThursday… 3 days as a floating hotel was not ideal, but our time on board during this time was relaxed and comfortable . Thefood on board was excellent, but 3 courses at lunch and then same again for dinner was too much. A light buffet would have been more suitable and other guests we spoke too felt the same. The crew and staff were excellent. Very professional and appropriately friendly.Show more
