READ MORESS Antoinette Review Day Two
After my first good night’s sleep on the SS Antoinette in my Savior handcrafted bed I took advantage of the shower and L’Occitane products and finished off with the biggest and most comfortable bathrobe I have ever worn – the inside was toweling and the outside cotton and as I am only 5’2″ it came […]
