OUR VERDICT

Every cabin here opens onto its own balcony and the four-season pool on the bow genuinely earns its keep in warm weather, which makes the entry Junior Balcony feel like real value at roughly $160 a head. Just know the jacuzzi tubs only begin at Senior grade, so the base cabin is a plain 22m2 double, and with 22 cabins running the classic Sung Sot and Titop route you are on the busiest water in the bay. There is no elevator either, so four decks means stairs.

Q
We're travelling with kids / a small group - what cabin works?

The Family Connecting suite (44m²) joins two Senior cabins for up to 4, and the Royal Suite VIP and Senior Balcony Triple each take 3. The four-season pool is a hit with kids. Children under 4 sharing with parents are free (one per cabin); 5-10 are charged 80%
