Review for a South Pacific Cruise on Resilient Lady

I had great expectations before cruising with virgin resilient lady. now i would never choose to cruise with virgin again. The absolutely "not user friendly"app that had to be used to make reservations at every restaurant for meals was a nightmare. i couldn't change my booking if i needed to add another person without losing the time i had booked i.e. If i booked for 6:30pm for 4 people and ...

Fantastic ship with a crew that made us feel valued

This was our first cruise on the Majestic after other cruises on various Princess ships. We loved that you could hardly feel any movement as the ship was so large. Our room was further to the front. Jamie’s band were absolutely amazing and had the passengers rocking. We spent most of our nights on the dance floor, which was on level 5 near the Vibes Bar. The team there were always busy but ...

We chose this cruise to use up some cruise credits after contracting Covid on a 21night Mediterranean cruise in 2023 and being isolated for a week. As we were in Sydney for other reasons, it was opportune to incorporate the cruise as well. Embarkation and Disembarkation were both quick and seamless. Despite having the required Princess profile photos, security are insistent on taking another ...

I was very excited to cruise on the Edge, I had read all the celebrity promo and it looked fabulous. We had an internal room deck 11, this was very nice nothing to complain about. The drinks packages and Wi- fi packages are extortionate. I did feel that Celebrity are trying to extract every extra dollar that can from you. The excursion's are something you do not want to go near as they are ...

Nice ship but boring; and do the math

We've taken 4 Celebrity cruises, 2 in the last 6 months, but probably won't take anymore. Beautiful ships, good food and great service but BORING. I'm not sure they have the right target audience (we're in our late 60's). For example, very talented musicians play easy-listening playlists. Look at the audience; they are playing cards! Another example: they have crafts during the day but ...

Very disappointed

After losing my father recently, we thought it would be good to take mum away for a few days. Disappointing is an understatement - Pros- Singers & dancers were very good Sailaway party and theme nights are good. Even though you cant swing a cat in the room, the bed was comfy. Cons- Ship is in very poor condition, paint peeling, tiles around the pool are broken, stains on the ceilings, ...

Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Carnival Splendor

We were a group of 17, part of a larger group who had been traveling in Australia and New Zealand. Several wanted to visit the Great Barrier Reef, and this cruise seemed to be an easy and fun way to do it. While we are not exactly "quiet and shy" people by any means, everyone in our group was annoyed by how loud everything on this ship was. The decor was loud, the other passengers were loud, the ...

Some improvements, some not

Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Carnival Luminosa

10+ Cruises • Age 50s

We went on this cruise to see if Carnival had lifted their game since our trans-Pacific cruise last year. Some things were an improvement, but some sadly not. To start with (and I know it's probably beyond Carnival's control, but it's part of the experience) the boarding process was heavenly compared with last year's three hour queue. We dropped off our large bag, then walked into the ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

I had heard great things about the new Ship and have always been an admirer of the amazing things that Richard Branson has achieved in his life. I read his books years ago and loved them, so it made complete sense to me to book a cruise with Virgin Voyages. The standout for me is the amazing crew, so happy ( a testament to having a great boss and working conditions) and helpful at all times. ...

We have been on many cruises and by far, this has Been our best experience. We cannot find any fault or need for improvement. From boarding the ship visiting ports and the onboard facilities it was smooth sailing.The friendly staff seemed to really enjoy their positions and very helpful at all times. The ship has exceeded all expectations. Excellent choice of restaurants, fitness and onboard ...
