We are a couple in our early sixties. Choose a Caribbean cruise every year for the weather and ports. This was our 3rd Azamara cruise. We choose small luxury lines.
We were in N2 category.
As in past excursions were canceled for lack of participants. If there is something you really must do then best to do it as independent.
Tender service was good.
Hotel mng Philip was ...
Thank you, wowpeople, for the cruise review.
I hope we will be able to welcome you back in 2019, after you've sampled another, 'jumped ship', in 2018. We want you back!...
This was our first cruise ever, so did not know what to expect.
We paid extra to have Azamara arrange all our flights and transfers, which at the time we thought to be expensive.
However the whole experience was stress free, the hotels were good, and the transfers were seamless, so we felt it was money well spent.
The food was good and varied with plenty of gluten free options as well ...
We have cruised on Azamara at least 5 time prior to this cruise so we had a level of expectation. It was not met in many respects.
Since Azamara had a promotion on the air flights they booked our arrival to the San Juan airport for a 5:49 PM arrival. By the time we got our bags and a taxi it was around 7 PM when we got to the ship which was scheduled to leave at 9 PM.
At the doc there were ...
We have travelled many times on Azamara, this was so looked forward to and disappointed on so many fronts.
The worst was the Amazing evening, it was dreadful.The blurb said we would be met by stilt walkers and proceed carnival style to a folkloric evening, returning to the ship singing carols.
Wrong on all counts.
We were left to walk to the end of the pier for a performance by a ...
We've been cruising the holidays with Celebrity they past 3 years and had gotten bored and felt Celebrity has gone backwards in terms of service and dining. So, we spotted a fair deal on this 8 nighter on the Quest and gave Azamara a try.
All I can say is WOW. The crew from bottom to top is very caring, fun and engaging.
The food was superb. In addition to the regular meals they outdid ...
Overall, a very good cruise. We were on a Thanksgiving Day cruise to the eastern Caribbean, with port calls at five islands.
Getting the negatives out of the way first. Cabins are very small, and the bathroom and shower are extremely tiny. We spent very little time in the cabin, so size was not an issue, but I did hear many gripes about the teeny tiny bathroom and showers from other ...
Long time cruiser but first with Azamara.
The ship was undergoing an annual Coast Guard Inspection so we were delayed embarkation until 12:30. We arrived at that time and our wait was 15 minutes. Check in went smoothly. Our bags, however, were not delivered until after 4 PM and talking to the crew we found that this was normal performance for them. Other cruise lines bring your bags much ...
We sailed on Journey for 10 nights beginning March 16, 2016. We were notified in advance that due to an inspection by the Coast Guard, boarding would begin at 12:30 with sailing at 5 PM.
Boarding: The ship normally docks at Terminal J but docked across from Terminal D so we had to park there knowing when we disembarked, we would have to travel to get our car.We live in Florida so were able to ...
We just returned from an 11 day cruise on the Azamara Journey. The ship had come out of dry dock prematurely. The company allegedly allowed only 2 weeks to do a complete overhaul. There were weather issues and allegedly supplier problems. We waited 5 hours at the terminal for " polishing" We finally got to our cabin only to find varnish fumes, wet varnish, no rod in the closet, tv not working and ...
We are seasoned cruisers and have traveled on many lines, but predominately Celebrity. We were interested in trying the Azamara experience and visiting the smaller islands.
This ship was in dry dock and only returned to Miami the morning of the cruise. We feel that it was premature as many items had not been completed and it appears that the company only allowed two weeks to do a major ...
