We took the tender to the island and DW sat near the beach while I walked up the hill (280 feet – or about 30 flights of steps) to see the views from the church atop the hill. The beaches were lovely as was the view, but the island is otherwise pretty low-key, with a population of under 300.

This was our first time on this island, and we took the ship tour to see the views, including the ancient copper mine and the famous Baths. It’s a beautiful island and I’d like to return to see inside the cave and the Baths, something we did not get to on this trip.

It's probably best to describe the ship by decks so you can get an idea of its compact coziness compared to other ships:

Deck 4: Cabins and guest services

Deck 5: MDR, café, shops (only 2), The Den (lounge), Cabaret

Decks 6,7,8: cabins

Deck 9: Buffet (including outside deck), patio dining area, pool, pool bar, spa, fitness center, beauty salon

Deck 10: two specialty restaurants, Atlas Bar, jogging track, “Living Room”

Deck 11: (half deck) sun deck with shuffleboard

The MDR offered shared or non-shared seating and also had a small bar area just outside the entrance with comfortable seating so groups could wait for their table to be ready or for the rest of their group.SHIP:

As mentioned earlier, this was our third Azamara cruise and our second on Onward, and we knew the ship (and even the cabin as it was the same cabin number we had occupied in 2019 on Journey and next door to the cabin we had last year on Onward).
