We chose Silversea some 18 months ago, because we have cruised with Regent and Seabourn and wanted to make a comparison. Silver Muse was a perfect choice because of the destination and timing. The "new ship" factor also helped!
We traveled to Barbados independently on the day before we embarked the ship. We have been to Barbados many times, and our stay was entirely in our hotel. ...
To summarize a cruise with "Silversea" would be to say it is like a "Cinderella Experience"! I realize everyone has their own preconceived expectations on what they are anticipating from "Their" cruise with no "2" being the same experience. To be sure there are individuals on each ship that are accustomed to being surrounded with staff that can address their every need and for them the cruise is ...
My sister and brother-in-law as well as my wife and myself have just retired and wanted to get away for relaxation. Happy to just cruise along and not need to visit the ports. Loved just sitting on the veranda with a drink in hand reading a good book as the Muse sailed along. Did not need to visit every port. My only gripe was that much of the sailing was during the night. However, the 2 sea days ...
TO experience the new Muse and relax with friends.
We have taken over 50 cruises, mostly on luxury lines and many times with Silverseas.
embarkation was perfect.Stateroom(605) very good.Certainly the nicest of any line in minimum category. Very nice bathroom, but wonder why no drawers, difficult location for trash can, and small facial tissues(all minimal objections). Veranda spacious with ...
Wanted to try out this newest addition to the Silversea fleet. Had been past cruisers with them for many years (totalling 80+ seadays). Wanted a leisurely cruise in somewhere relatively close to home and offering warmth and sunshine. This cruise fit the bill.
Very impressed with the suite assigned and found the public areas of the ship warm and welcoming. The embarkation was not as smooth ...
We meet some great people allowing many opportunities for fellowship, etc. The Muse is a very nice ship with great appointments. The staff was attentive. Special recognition to our cabin butler and his associate. The food was great in all the restaurants with outstanding wine selections.
Shore excursions meet and exceeded our expectations, Notables were Grenada, Bequia, Turks and Caicos, ...
Wanted to give the Muse a second shot before final impressions, since the Sept cruise (our fist one on the Muse) was its maiden crossing. Also, had booked this in place of an 8-day Whisper cruise which we had booked but which had gotten chartered out from under us. Since there was room enough in the suite, we brought one of our sons with us, age 35. This was our twenty-sixth Silversea cruise. ...
Very relaxing cruise on this gorgeous new (2017) ship. Just the right size with about 600 passengers.
Enjoyed choosing from a variety of different restaurants for our meals. Food was the best we have ever had on Silversea. Sometimes there seemed to be a need for more wait staff as service could be quite slow. It seems unnecessary to charge guests $60 each for choosing to dine in 2 of the ...
