Beautiful Ship - Not a 6 Star Experience

Review for a Caribbean - Southern Cruise on Seabourn Ovation

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

After 4 previous sailings on Celebrity, we wanted to experience "ultra luxury cruising." We are an active couple in our early 70's and often felt that the bulk of activities on board were geared to elderly people preferring a slower pace or being content to read books, play mahjong, bridge and participate in trivia tournaments. The Seabourn Square was an incredibly sleepy area (like being in a ...

We're an active, mid-forties, couple who enjoy the freedom to holiday how we want. Seabourn is a significant misfit for people like us. First of all, there were no people like us on the boat. In five days, we think we at least saw everybody once. There was one other couple our age and they were feeling the same as we did, like misfits. The average age of this cruise couldn't have been less ...

I didn’t read the reviews before going on this voyage so wanted to keep an open mind. We have done 19 plus cruises to date. We are a 41 year old couple. The cruise did not live up to what I expected. Let me highlight the details. 1. Jacuzzi on deck 9 is falling apart and peeling. 2. Don’t expect any service at the pool. Front jacuzzi on deck 9 is all self service. Would be nice if ...

Comfortable cabin, training needed

The cabin was comfortable and spacious in comparison to other standard cabins. Mattresses and bed linen are top notch. The bathroom toilet and shower were in separate stalls and quite spacious. The double sinks were a nice touch. However, our shower door leaked streams of water on the floor every time we showered. We reported it the second day and it was still leaking 3 days later. We reported it ...

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

We are a young 70s couple with 10 Seabourn cruises and several Silver Seas and Tauck cruises under our belt. We chose this cruise pretty much because it was available with a superior suite (Navigator Suite) when Seabourn was sold out. Also, Regent sports itself as "Ultra Luxury" so we though we would give it a try. First the pre-night hotel stay. The Hilton was awful! Pretty beach but ...

Disappointed first time with Regent

This was our first cruise with Regent. We've travelled with Viking, Windstar, Poinant, and others. The Navigator cruise from Barbados to Barbados looked like a nice itinerary. The cruise itself was very nice and the crew and food were great, on a par with Viking. There were a couple of issues shouldn't have happened on Regent. The main issue was the absolutely chaotic transfer from the ...

Disappointing for a first cruise

First Time Cruiser • Age 60s

I'm not great with big crowds so we decided for our first cruise we would go with a smaller ship (which I am glad we did) and as I like quality the Seven Seas Navigator seemed like a good choice. We were originally touring the Caribbean in 2020 but the pandemic stopped that so this was our rescheduled attempt. Organising the cruise was easy and we got good advice from the rep in the U.K. ...

Poorly planned (no planning at all) shore excursions

Review for a Caribbean - All Cruise on Royal Clipper

6-10 Cruises • Age 70s

So the “sail always” were nice especially because this is a full rigged clipper ship, rigging took quite awhile and the amount of canvass was impressive. After a few departures this got kind of old and as far as I could determine the ship mostly relied on the engines for propulsion as is the case with other “sailing ships”, it’s mostly for the visual effects. The traditional wood and fittings ...

Dumped on departure day, lower standards, still great staff

10+ Cruises • Age 70s

We have sailed many times with Regent. ALWAYS STANDARDS HAVE BEEN HIGH BUT NOT SO MUCH ON THIS CRUISE. still great staff BUT the organisation re travel was lousy. Forced to fly via Heathrow both ways when direct flights available, dumped on day of departure in a beach club that was 1 star and over crowded to a level that was crazy. Put on a minibus with 10 passengers plus all luggage, crammed in ...

Reviews of this ship are accurate but the excursion manager was impossible to deal with

Choose this cruise because I really like small ships and I was very interested in the sailing etc. As others have described the “raising of the sails” is very dramatic and fun to watch for the first 2 or 3 times. Crew is obviously focused on the care and maintenance of the sails etc. but as far as I could tell except for the day when we sailed with a sister ship the sails were just ...
