Behaviour of some passengers left much to be desired

We are mostly independent travellers who have been using cruise ships over the past 4 years to see places we were curious to see but not necessarily for a lengthy stay. During this time we have taken 15 cruises - 4 Celebrity, 4 Disney, 3 Royal Caribbean, 3 Princess and 1 Viking oceans. I have enjoyed them all for different reasons but this one will always stand out in my memory for the bawdiness ...

Not the best of cruises

There is a definite decline of RCCL cruises out of Southampton. Without sounding a snob these cruises appear to becoming holiday centres like Butlins and Pontins on board a large cruise ship. We experienced smoking, very bad language and at times drunkenness in the casino and some bars. There were also charges put on our account that were incorrect, these were corrected when challenged, but ...

We chose Cunard - curious to sample the luxury service they claim to offer. The ship was indeed beautiful, clean and elegant. I was delighted with the stateroom - although anyone over a size 14 will have trouble fitting into their shower cubicle (and this applies to the higher costing staterooms as well) Plenty of storage space and the balcony was a little deeper than those on other cruise ...

Chose the cruise because we wanted to go to some of the Caribbean island we had not previously visited and because we had had a relaxing cruise on Ventura last year. We knew early on that we obviously could not go to St Maarten. Storm Brian delayed us by a day and cutting long story short we had 3 days in the Caribbean - 2 of them on islands we know well. No time in Barbados. No concessions of any ...

We have been cruising for almost 10 years, but this was our first time on Celebrity. We chose this particular cruise for the chance of some sun late in the year, and also based on good reviews for the ship. However, we were disappointed. EMBARKATION/DISEMBARKATION : Southampton, quick and easy, very efficient. SHIP : Clean, modern, and generally well maintained. However, we found it ...

CELEBRITY ECLIPSE - October 18th to 27th Southampton to Canaries. First time on Celebrity cruises following several recommendations from cruising friends and people we have met during our cruising career. “You must try the 5 star cruise line” or something along those lines. Which we were keen to do and therefore this October cruise which coincided with our wedding anniversary seemed to me to ...

Chose the cruise because this was hyped as the P&O flagship, biggest and best. Embarkation was fantastic, car to cabin in about 10- 15 minutes, cannot fault it. Our balcony cabin was small, no sofa, bumping into each other all the time. Wardrobe space was ample. Toilet/ shower room was very small. Horizon restaurant , male waiting staffynnon were slow and poorly trained..on three ...

Lovely ship but mediocre food and service

Second cruise with MSC but previously on Splendida a couple of years ago. Decided to try a cruise sailing from Southampton and arrived a few hours before our check in time. Good organisation at the port and on boarding was very smooth. Had already booked the drinks package but found out when we looked at the menu that it had changed and many drinks were now excluded included beers and cocktails we ...

Bit of a let down...

This was my first P&O cruise chosen by the friend whose special birthday we were to celebrate. P&O were nice enough to upgrade the two of us and both the super deluxe and balcony cabins were a fair enough size but oh so beige and plastic. Quiet though and well positioned should we have had rough seas but one of the upsides of this cruise was the calmest of waters I have ever ...

Aqua class to the rescue!

Our first experience of Aqua class was good. Select dining was fully booked and we like to choose our own time, so we booked Aqua class. We loved being in a smaller restaurant and the staff were great. However, the food was a bit lacking in quality a couple of times (we were offered to choose something else but on those days the choice was not good. There were too many “shredded meat dishes” ...
