1-10 of 115 Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades) Royal Caribbean Vision of the Seas Cruise Reviews
Crew was outstanding and tried very hard to be accommodating. Many of staff in windjammer and dining rooms were very helpful and attentive. However, feel that upper management made terrible choices as regards food choices and it felt like RCI didn't care that there was essentially no food option for lunch after 3pm or after 8pm other than park cafe. RCI should be embarrassed to call that an ...
My husband and I waited two years to go on this cruise due to the pandemic. We were ecstatic to finally be onboard and in our lovely balcony room. Even though we were both fully vaccinated and boosted we both caught Covid on the third day of our sailing. We spent the next eight days ejected from our balcony room into a dank medical ward room. We spent the remaining days looking through the dirty ...
We were being very careful on the cruise only eating at chops 5 nights and main dining 3 times at 2 top tables. Only took 3 excursions with 1 to beach and 2 on crowded buses with only Royal passengers. Got off ship and immediately got sick with Covid and to go into hospital for 2 days.
Called Royal to complain but they were not interested in hearing our complaints. So reported event to ...
We chose this 16 day cruise for it’s itinerary, value and breadth of activities.
The ship was a manageable size, offered plentiful activities and many meal and eating options.
The cruise directors and activities staff provided many entertainment and participant activities.
We were amazed at the friendly and helpful staff. Each staff member went out of their way to make sure we had the ...
We chose this cruise because the timing was good, it ended up in LA where we could drive home to Phoenix and we needed 15 days to make Diamond level. We arrived in Fort Lauderdale 2 days ahead hoping to do some sightseeing but a cloudburst stuck with us for much of the 48 hours until we boarded which dampened our plans. We were glad we were staying in an Embassy Suites and had the extra room while ...
1. Embarkation very good. Debarkation - chaos. We didn't get off the ship until 11:20AM
2. Entertainment. Awful. The comedian rolled up a napkin to resemble a penis and safety pinned in to his belt and strutted around the stage making flatulence noises and telling potty mouth jokes.
3. Giovanni's Table: terrific, but $20 extra. Lido (they call it the Windjammer): same food each day, very limited ...
We were pleased with everything from the moment we got on the ship. Our cabin was clean and fresh. The cabin Stewart introduced himself and was happy to see if we could have a little refrigerator. We did.
We were so happy to sit at table 137, where both Andre and Ignacio treated us as if we were royalties.
Every meal we ate at dinner was delicious. The dining rooms were comfortable and not too ...
Generally, we cruise with Celebrity. Our first cruise was on Royal, and it was a good one, so we had no qualms about doing another. I only mention this as while the two lines aren’t directly comparable, Celebrity serves as my point of reference. This cruise was a 9 night repositioning from Fort Lauderdale to Tampa. The ports were Labadee, Curacao, Aruba and Grand Cayman.
Embarkation: Fantastic. ...
For those of you who have not cruised since the Love Boat was a TV regular, well... things have changed a bit.
The Cruise Line (RCI): Today, most cruises are heavily discounted, and therefore the cruise line must try any and all other ways to generate income. These include 'pay extra' restaurants aboard, non-inclusive drinks and even the somewhat poorly-considered practice of not supplying ...
This was our first Royal Caribbean cruise and will probably be our last. There were way too many issues. First, let me preface this review by saying I did not choose this cruise line, ship or ports. A relative and his friends had booked this cruise and asked us if we wanted to join them so we did but I'd never have chosen this boat on my own. It was far too small of a boat which meant there were ...
