This 7 dy cruise was an anniversary cruise. Oct 21 thr 28th, 2023. The ship stayed at ft, lauderdale for 2.5 dys before the capt. Finally sent out a msg saying seaweed had clogged one of the engines, and we should be sailing later that evening so that was the reason that we were still docked? While the ship is still at port the casino can't open, stores aren't open. We were supposed to go to ...

We chose HAL because we sailed with them 10+ years ago and it was great then. Unfortunately it has changed a lot and this has been the most disappointing vacation in 43 years. We missed 2 out of 4 ports due to ship being docked for maintenance. And one stop is just the private island owned by Carnival and HAL and the stop at Grand Turk was hugely disappointing as it was only Americanized tourist ...

We selected this cruise based on reviews and advice from past guests. The cruise was reduced from 7 days to 5 days due to the need to repair the azipod propulsion system which took 2 days to complete thereby making the ship a floating hotel. In addition to shortening the cruise they altered the itinerary to one which was far less desirable for our group and probably everyone aboard. We had ...

Standing out cabin stewards nyoman and sugi were exceptional!! Rarely seen, always on top of everything! Any and all requested of them provided with a smile. Room service, on time, correct, best seen in long time! Food in mdr excellent but here is where history departs from new reality. No included lobster entree on cruise. Instead three varying additional charge items. Though our waiter and his ...

Ship limped it's way back into Fort Lauderdale just ahead of our cruise. Then we found out we would be staying 2 full days in Fort Lauderdale. We also found out that 2 of our most anticipated ports were then cancelled San Juan, Puerto Rico, and St. Thomas USVI. Our time on Grand Turk was cut from 7 hours to just over 4. Holland America (HAL) did add another stop instead - Nassau, Bahamas - ...

Itinerary- Africa at the top of my bucket list. Most ports were readily available to walk through. Ship tours ranged in price- from inexpensive to YIKES! Even though I now travel solo, I was comfortable and at ease. Staff on board exceptional- always willing to answer questions, give directions when we got lost or needed more information. Cabin stewards were always going the extra mile to make ...

We chose the 20 day repositioning cruise from Vancouver to Ft Lauderdale mainly for an opportunity to relax and be pampered..not as much for the ports of call en route. My husband has mobility issues and we didn’t expect to do many excursions ( I did 3 and he, 2). We welcomed days at sea. We chose a Signature suite because more spacious. The bathroom was lovely and we did like extra room ...

Anniversary Cruise to Hawaii

10+ Cruises • Age 60s

We chose this cruise because our 45th anniversary would be celebrated while onboard, as well as the fact that we live close to the cruise port and would not have to fly prior to or after the cruise. We had the HIA package and booked our specialty dinners prior to sailing, as well as booking our shore excursions before sailing so we were ensured of them not selling out before we got onboard. I also ...

Food variety at Lido dining poor.Taramand fee ...
