My girlfriend and myself are regulars on cruise ships. Also i must note that this is a dual review as we've been on easycruise 1 twice.
When we went on the first time we went on expecting nothing, but loved every minute of it. met great people, anjoyed all the ports and didn't even want to get off!
We raved about it to nearly all we met, so can you imagine our suprise when we went back and found the greek format had changed everything even the ship!
Stelios was on board and could obviously see things were not right.
The party atmosphere was no more and the music playing was too somber. The sports bar was gone, so no karioke. It had turned into a stylish contemporary resturant with no heart. It seemed the only way to change things was to really complain at reception about the terrible music. I even pointed to the plasma screen behind the receptionists head with loads of people dancing on top deck and said "thats what i came on board for!". At that point the music changed. The next evening they had a happy hour, and when Stelios saw the drink flowing at the bar, he extended the happy hour for another half hour.
Such a shame we had to go home the next day. Still, nice ports and the greek islands are beautiful. But due to our dissapoimtment we wouldn't cruise with stelios again.
But if the format changed back we'd love to, and thats the truth. So please please change back !

How anyone can rate this ship more than a 2, I dont know! My ratings say it all, It was a ship from hell, and it was slightly embarrasing when your docked beside a LUXURY Cruise Liner.
This cruise is only suitable for those who fail to apreciate cruising the world in style, and for those who do not have a lot of disposable income (no disrespect).
NEVER AGAIN!

It's nearly a year since we went on easy cruise but I've only just signed up to the site and saw it had no reivews so thought I'd add one.
we had a brilliant time and I wouldn't hesitate to do it again. we are even looking into going on the carribean cruise next winter!
yes the cabins are small but there was everything provided that you needed and you don't spend much time in there anyway.
it was a great way to visit places we'd probably never have gone to otherwise such as Cannes and St. Tropez.
Incidentally, we found the best view of Cannes was to be had sipping very reasonably priced cocktails on the boat - you had an amazing panoramic view of the bay that you didn't get onshore.
the food in the bar wasn't great but was just basic stuff like pizzas and burgers but OK if you wanted a quick snack before hitting the town.
the policy of sailing in the morning was great because you could get up to watch the boat sail and have a nice coffee, then spend the morning on the sun deck watching the coastline float by. Very relaxing. Arriving at lunchtime, you got plenty of time to see the sights of the port and go out for food/drinks later. It was nice not being tied in to all meals on the boat as with normal cruises.
as for the people, we found it was a broad mix of people from 20-something to 50-something.
it's probably not for everyone, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it!

Well we went twice in 2005 July & Sept and had a brilliant time.
Didn't want to put it on here last year just incase we couldn't get on again,
But can't keep it to ourselves for every
We booked for just 4 nights and ended up staying 7 nights
We loved the free and easy atmosphere
The staff we really nicet, all asking how your day had been.First class service, nothing was to much trouble.
Stelios came onboard to meet everyone and sat around asking questions and what we thought, which I thought was really nice.
The food and drinks where what we expected and nothing was over priced.
We stopped at each port wandered around the towns,shopped/went around the museums, had an evening meal and then went back to the ship and had drinks, listening to the music until early morning. A lot just stayed at the night clubs until 3am, the ship sets off to the next port at 4am,
We sunbathed, went into the hot tub or cold tub as it was during the hot days,
It was brilliant, so much so that we went back in September and had 7 days again.
We are in our late 40's, Our daughter and her friend who are in their early 20's ad at Uni came the same week as us, they enjoyed it just as much as we did.
We enjoyed the company of people in their 20's to 60's from all different walks of life.
Music was to suit all age groups, so don't think its all for the 20/30 year olds.
We have found lovely restaurants in the towns we stopped off at.
We loved the cabins, yes they are orange but what the heck, your only in there to sleep!
We loved the staff
Well we are off again on Monday next week for another 7 days and can't wait.
What more can I say and yes I have been cruiseing for years,
usually Asia, but if you have had a stressful week at work and just want a nice weeks holiday just to chill and relax, Easy Cruise is it.
