It´s a very good ship for its category. Compared to all the major ships cruising in the Caribbean for example, this one is a small one but has four star comfort and has been very well maintained.
Food and service are good.
Accomodations and public areas are decorated with warm and colorful decor.
It´s are perfect ship for a seven day cruise in South East Asia.

The passenger mix is Chinese from Singapore or Hong Kong, Malaysian, Australian and some British (not many Americans). The ship is kept beautifully clean and the crew is extremely friendly. The food is good (not excellent) and the on-board activities have something pretty much for everyone. The ports are quite interesting. I really enjoyed my week on the Gemini and had a fantastic time. Is there anything specific you want to know?
