We booked the Azamara Quest cruise from Sydney to Bali sailing on 13th February 2016 way back in 2014. The itinerary looked fabulous and we had been advised that as cruise virgins we should go high end. This looked to be perfect. However, we were then told by seriously experienced cruisers that if we wanted to enjoy luxury cruising without the price tag we should try Celebrity, which we did in ...
My wife and I have just returned home from a Christmas/New Year cruise and I would like to provide you with some feedback about the Azamara Quest.
Azamara Quest is classed as being 5.5 star; believe me, it is most certainly nowhere near that. We have travelled on most cruise lines and we know what’s 3, 4, 5 and 6 star. We had an Ocean View cabin and it was nowhere near adequate. It was way too ...
Just returned for Indonesia / Australia cruise on the Quest.
We have been on Azamara several times and have previously been very satisfied.
However, it was very noticeable on this cruise that the standards had dropped.
The staff are still absolutely first class but they are being denied the tools to work with.
As with other contributors, we noticed that the standard of the food had ...
This was our 7th cruise with Azamara, and by far the most disappointing.
The ship is tired and well overdue the overall planned refurb within the next few months, but that was what we expected.
The ports were very much as we anticipated but Lombok, Thursday Island and Cooktown are really not geared up to visitors. We enjoyed Darwin, with the exception of the Azamazing evening, Port Douglas ...
As always with Azamara the staff and crew are faultless, the problem was the destinations visited. Azamara moto is we take you where other cruise lines can't, but if there is nothing of interest at those destinations or no the only access is by very pushy island vendors then they are wasted days. Lombok was very dissapointing and spent probably 5 minutes ashore.
Azamara usually put on coaches ...
We are seasoned cruisers and this was our 12th cruise in the past 9 years. We previously cruised with Azamara on Journey in the Black Sea in 2013 and were very pleased, so we booked a cruise around Indonesia with Azamara on Quest. We traveled to Singapore from Toronto on Air Canada and spent a day in Singapore before the cruise.
We were on a 10 night cruise from Singapore to Bali and it was ...
This was a back to back cruise Singapore to Cairns. Standards have fallen. The Discovery Dining Room evening menu lacked choice and the menu seemed to be repeated too often. Previously the evening meal was something to look forward too, but now just another event. Seems that Azamara have a "slash and burn policy." Complimentary wines are of a low quality and waiters were passing off blended wine ...
I don't like to write a bad review as I am lucky enough in this world to be able to cruise and find new and exciting places. I had heard a lot of good things about Azamara, were my expectations too high? No. Am I the brands clientèle? Yes. What would have made this cruise better? Lots. Why did this cruise not work for me? It did rain for the first 5 days but that is not the fault of the cruise. ...
We just returned from a cruise on the Quest to Viet Nam and were very disappointed. This was our 4th cruise with Azamara and we booked a suite. The room and the staff were excellent and the ship was clean and well maintained. That is where the good ends and the disappointing begins. The food was way below what we experienced on previous Azamara cruises. The quality and variety were below par to ...
We arrived in Singapore after 26+ hours of travel. We stayed at the beautiful St. Regis for a few days to see the city. We embarked on the Quest with no problem at 1230.
Having sailed on Azamara before we knew our way around and went to the buffet till around 1400.
Went to our Veranda Stateroom on deck 7 , met our highly capable cabin attendant and his assistant. They do a spectacular job ...
