Small friendly ship. Food was very good - never had a problem selecting something and it always came up hot. Service was also very good. The host knew our name after the first night at the MDR. Breakfast and lunch buffet was also very good - different selections every day for lunch.
We enjoyed the 'Living Room' bar and piano music. Different 'theme' music most nights - nice atmosphere and a ...
This was our second Azamara cruise and it was wonderful. This was a transatlantic cruise and we encountered some rough water. Nobody’s fault. We still had a fantastic time! The ship was beautiful and very clean. The food was amazing! The entertainment was beyond fabulous, thanks I’m sure to Eric the Entertainment Director. The shows were way better on Onward than on Quest last year. The crew ...
Having been on large and river boat previous cruises we decided to opt for a medium size line and Azamara Onward fitted the bill.
We had a truly wonderful holiday and would recommend the cruise line 100%. Everything about it was perfect. We cannot praise the Staff enough - helpful, enthusiastic, friendly. All good. The catering was excellent. The entertainment was first rate. No complaints at ...
It was our first cruise with AZAMARA ("Onward") and this is our overall impression:
Positive:
The "Onward" is fully renovated and in a good condition.
In all areas the whole staff makes a fantastic job - professional, exceptionally prudent and friendly without exception
(Our waiter BLAISE in the "Spirit" bar made the best job ever).
Very good to excellent food.
Quality of the ...
We always cruise over the Holidays and out of approx. 30 cruises taken so far, this was our 3rd Azamara Cruise and first on the supposedly all "new" Azamara Onward.
The Good:
Mostly very friendly staff and crew. Good Housekeeping and our Cabin Attendant (Jonel) was excellent!
Food & presentation good. The Captain and Executive Chef, F&B Managers and Supervisors very visible. ...
First, the Captain and crew were very good. The Captain regularly and calmly kept the passengers up to date on the number of COVID cases (both passenger and crew), and every officer and crew member we encountered during the voyage was very nice, helpful, and knowledgeable. Service both in making up our room, to the pool deck, and dining room was very good and at times exceptional (a term we ...
We booked this crossing as we were headed back to the States after a long holiday in Europe and the departure and arrival ports fit our plans. This was our 35th cruise and our 5th time on Azamara.
The best part of the trip were the people we met on board. We had many fun evenings over drinks in the Living Room before dinner and dancing after dinner.
We booked a large suite and were very ...
I just enjoy getting away on my own from time to time and cruising is my favorite way to escape. It is always more fun to have my travel buddies with me but it’s not always possible and cruising is a way to make new friends or hang out alone, if you prefer. For some reason, “all in the same boat” seems to be the perfect motto for single travelers and the reason to travel that way. Azamara ships ...
We decided to go on this cruise because I would celebrate my 70th birthday on the ship, I had never been to the Caribbean, after 10 cruises we decided to try out a more luxury ship and finally we wanted to visit New York for the first time.
We had previously sailed on the Tahitian Princess many years ago. It was also an R class ship, identical to the Journey. We loved the ship and the ...
We just returned from Azamara Journey Cuba/Cozumel. I thought the ship was meticulously maintained by a wonderful, cheerful staff who could not do enough for you.
I think I observed only 1 sourpuss the entire cruise, and that was at breakfast. Maybe she wasn't a morning person...I also liked the ship décor which was very European instead of the new bland, grey millennial style. I understand ...
