This was our first Cunard experience, and we were not disappointed. We were on the first sector of the 2019 World Cruise; this would take us from Southampton to Fort Lauderdale, stopping at Bermuda and Port Canaveral. We were under no illusions with six sea days before the first port of call we would need to find plenty to do. Also, the North Atlantic in January could have been very rough ...
We chose this cruise from Southampton to Fort Lauderdale because we like days on board the ship and the 11 day voyage from Southampton to Forty Lauderdale is perfect for us. We had done the same voyage the year before -since when the QV has undergone a refit which has improved the ship although it has created yet another tier of special client which may be good for Cunard but does nothing to ...
Cabin was dowdy, old stained curtains, shower smelt of mold! The fan didn’t work so the mirror fogged up so much you couldn’t see a thing in it! Bathroom wasn’t cleaned properly! Black stain in the loo, and smelt of urine!
Stain of looked like dried on milk up the wall!
They seriously need upgrading!
The money Cunard have spent on upgrading has not gone into the balcony rooms, I guess ...
We chose this cruise to get some winter sun without needing to fly. The ship is fabulous and most of the staff were 2nd to none though we felt there could have been more staff especially in the Britannia restaurant where they were rushed off their feet. .
Embarkation was very smooth and hassle free. We were in our cabin in no time and our luggage arrived soon after. The cabin was accessible and ...
A customary trip to the Caribbean in Princess grill, the suite was fine with a very efficient cabin attendant, the kitchens made a good efforts with the food and the service in the Princess Grill was commendable. The Concierge Seltran Ebillo was personable and efficient. The evenings entertainment was good particularly from the group called the Rewind Project.
However the trip itself ...
we were picked up by coach and had a great journey down and embarkation was quick and easy.
The ship was great and the food was excellent.
The entertainment was very good but we are getting a bit fed up of Roy Walker who seems
to have been on every cruise we have had.
We had a couple of stormy days one was a force 10 the day after leaving Ponta Delgarda
and the other one was ...
Wife did not want to fly long distance to winter sun.
This was good value for money, no flying and no luggage restrictions.
The ship was excellent, crew very attentive, entertainment good and varied, food good, weather variable but warmed up as we neared the Caribbean. Been there many times so did no tours. Appreciated the presence of a bridge director for organised duplicate competitions on ...
Very poor food and menu. Better in Britannia class! Head Waiter and Maitre "D" completely uninterested in passengers. This was evident throughout most of the ship although one or two staff were excellent. Suite had "tired" furniture and bathroom was a disgrace with no dedicated shower. Two tours were disgracefully managed and small refund from one should have really been a complete refund. Visit ...
We have just returned from a 2 week cruise on Cunard’s Queen Victoria – our first experience of cruising. We joined the ship at Southampton on 20 January for the first leg of her 2015 world cruise. The cruise included a visit to the Azores, British Virgin Islands, Antigua, Bahamas and Fort Lauderdale – flying back from Miami.
We knew the ship was beautiful, following a taster day on her in August ...
Have recently returned from a lovely cruise on the Queen Victoria (first time on this ship but very similar to Queen Elizabeth). Embarkation was very easy but quite a long wait as a lot of people boarding. Very happy with cabin (6144) although there was a lot of vibration through my mattress on occasions which I've never noticed on any other cruises I've done before
Cabin was kept very clean by ...
