I sailed on the ships prior to Sea Dream - was on the Seabourn Sea Goddess II. Outstanding everything to be sure, and the most personal service I've had. I would warn those of you who get seasick that you can definitely feel the motion on these ships. Compared say, to Navigator there is a huge difference. We did the Caribbean, and it wasn't a rough cruise, but on shore excursions I felt dizzy to the point I thought something was wrong. If the conditions were right (price, itinerary, etc.) I'd go again in a heartbeat. Food, service, atmosphere were all outstanding, and these ships have been upgraded since I sailed. All staff knew our names and preferences within the first day or so.
