Would be 5* as Celebrity do so many things so well, but one thing needs addressing

We were originally doing this cruise with two other couples a few years ago, but the dreaded covid interfered with our original plans. Overall, Celebrity seem to be one of a minority of cruise lines who have recovered better than most after the pandemic. There’s no shortage of staff, who are as good as ever. The food is up to the usual Celebrity standard. In fact in certain areas such as soups ...

They don’t have their act together regarding excursions and port information

Small ship sounded great, less than 200 passengers on an ocean voyage. Billed as luxury. Worst part was the sewage smell from our bathroom. They did try to fix it. The ship is new but hard to believe this is the first time there’s been this problem. People passing by commented on the smell coming from our room. The food was sometimes good, sometimes really not good. The entire staff, with ...

We chose this cruise because of the "twofer" offering and the Portugal visit. Crew was outstanding, food was inconsistent (terrible paella prepared under a visiting chef - mushy and tasteless, confirmed by some of the staff). There was a shortage of shore excursions, no plan as to where to go when we disembarked, no taxis when we were told they'd be there, uninspired descriptions of stops we'd ...

Disgusting food, the worst entertainment

I had quite good experiences with NCL Breakaway & NCL EPIC. So this time I had no doubt chosen NCL. Actually I didn't read carefully about the size of this ship NCL Star, I bet I would never chose it. First night, me & my husband embarked around 5pm. After half an hour unpacked, we planned having dinner in the Aqua Dining Room for our first meal in the ship. Omg, so disappointed, we ...

Scenic Fails the Basics - forget about luxury or details

Signed up for Eclipse I, Scenic substituted Eclipse II. Ship was unfinished and workmen drilled, hammered and banged to build it underway. When purchased the cruise advertised alot of things they did not deliver: Submarine! (Nope- not available), TV! (Nope, not until the last day) ,Internet! (Nope), Steam Room in Spa! (Not when I went), Spa Pool! (Empty when I went), Chef's Table dining! (Nope, ...

Stellar Sail On a Reborn Ship

The short story is we had a great cruise. We've sailed with Azamara one other time and this is about our 35th cruise overall. We've done small all the way up to mega-sized ships. There's pros/cons to them all and we enjoy all the experiences with some big differences between them. Azamara's advantages are known. The overnights. The Azamazing Evenings. Their ability to get close in on many ...

This is our feedback on the cruise we booked onboard following our 2022 France intensive cruise. This time it's Spain intensive (Lisbon to Barcelona). Since we only sail Azamara it's an Azamara 2022 V Azamara 2023 comparison. Once again, we sailed on the Journey and, as previously, the ship sailed and arrived exactly as scheduled in each port and in every case appeared to have the best berth ...

This was our first time on Azamara. Friends of ours who went with us on this cruise, had sailed with them before and they spoke very highly of the line. Our itinerary was from Lisbon to Barcelona and was 9 nights in length. We tacked on a couple of extra days on each end of the trip and made it a full two weeks. It was such a different experience from the mega ships, several of which we have ...

We got a late deal at a good price - booked an Inside Guarantee. We were pleased to have a complimentary cabin upgrade. We enjoyed the cruise and benefited from fine weather throughout. We were pleasantly surprised by the outstanding condition of the ship despite having no major refit for 7 years. Embarkation and disembarkation was smooth. We appreciated being able to upload the key personal ...

Between the two of us, my husband and I have been on 8 cruises, with various lines (Carnival, MSC, Norwegian, Princess and Royal Caribbean), so we generally know what to expect on a cruise. What we didn't anticipate when we booked an early December (2022) ten day Cruise on NCL from Lisbon Portugal to the Canary Islands, Gibraltar, Spain and back to Lisbon was to be on a floating nursing home. The ...
