Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Carnival Luminosa
raynander
First Time Cruiser • Age 20s
Fun Ship. Good for under 40's. Not so much or older cruisers other than those who love countless varieties of trivia.
Deck 7 cabin was adequate and very quiet. Larger balcony than normal. Bed was hard which may suit some but not those side-sleepers with dodgy lower backs.
Most staff were friendly as expected.
Tyler the cruise director was one of the best and involved we have ...

The ship fitout is very nice, with polished stone everywhere and lovely light fittings etc.
The theatre especially, is very nice with plenty of room and small tables for drinks.
The entertainment, however, was appalling.
The performers were mediocre at best, and the lighting was atrocious, with extremely bright lights aimed right into the eyes of the audience giving blinding flashes ...

We went on this cruise to see if Carnival had lifted their game since our trans-Pacific cruise last year. Some things were an improvement, but some sadly not.
To start with (and I know it's probably beyond Carnival's control, but it's part of the experience) the boarding process was heavenly compared with last year's three hour queue. We dropped off our large bag, then walked into the ...

Review for a South Pacific Cruise on Quantum of the Seas

I had a great time on this cruise, I was a solo traveller and everyone was really nice and friendly. I'd recommend the solo traveller meet up held on the first few nights.
A few things I noticed tho.
The Evian water package that cost me AUD$40 (pre cruise discount) turned out to be cheap supermarket water that would cost AUD$10, see pic. There weren't water fountains to fill up water ...

Review for a South Pacific Cruise on Quantum of the Seas
Cogdoc
First Time Cruiser • Age 50s
The good:
We lucked out with the calmest seas in Feb cyclone season.
RC shore visits in Noumea, Mystery and Port Vila. Expensive but well run.
The insanely blue water of Mystery island.
The beauty of New Caledonia and Vanuatu itself.
Staring at the ocean ( an ocean view is a MUST!! )
Realising just how BIG the ocean really is.
Well appointed and liveable room.
Gym ...

This was my seventh cruise with Royal Caribbean (Second on Quantum) and I have cruised with three other lines so I could claim to be a seasoned cruiser to a degree.
First the good:
Great friendly cabin and waiter staff (with one exception). Junell and Eugene in the main dining room were excellent while supervisor Rolston was very competent. Edgar looked after our room very ...

Review for a South Pacific Cruise on Quantum of the Seas

We decided to travel to Brisbane to celebrate our anniversary on a cruise to the South Pacific, instead of our usual departure port of Sydney, as Ovation was headed to NZ.
This was our third Quantum class ship, and what a disappointment it was. The ship was overrun with unruly teenagers and their disinterested parents who did very little to control their offspring. Likely too busy ...

Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Pacific Encounter

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s
Unfortunately P&O have dropped the ball in the food area, tarnishing one of the reasons many of us enjoy cruising.
This was our first cruise since Covid, having a couple with P&O prior and also another larger company. In the past we considered P&O food to be marginally better than the technically 'better' cruise line, but let down by the quality of entertainment. Now the entertainment is good ...

We took the 14 day New Zealand cruise from Brisbane on 4th December 2023. Worrying about reviews written about the age and state of the ship we were pleasantly surprised. As it is older the corridors are wider, and we weren’t packed in like sardines. The carpet is just like that in the RSL clubs. We took Aloha mini suite. Whilst it not as wide as others the rounded balcony has the best views by ...

Choose this cruise for a short break and it served its purpose.
Had a nice balcony cabin (Deck 8) although some noise from deck nine, buffet dining, was a bit annoying.
Food and service was OK, not the best, but far from being the worst.
One big disappointment was the shore excursions.
1. Luecila Beach and Scenic, Overpriced and definitely not what its advertised as.
Paid A$114 ...
