In a teeming rain, we left the shelter of our hotel in Bali, wondering if we had made a good decision in booking an 18-day circuit around the barren western & southern coasts of Australia, ending in Sydney. Did we??? Well - you decide, by reading my story of our travels....
Let us begin at the very beginning...before Bali...as it takes some doing for an American to even get there. One must ...
We have sailed on many cruises, (52 to date) and Azamara was a new one for us. The Quest looks just like the smaller ships on the Oceana line and except for a few differences they are exactly the same. But only in the ships appearances.
We booked this segment and the next as a back to back of Central America & Mexico. Except for Mexico all ports were new to us. So the itinerary was what got us ...
Azamara Quest Review Costa Rica 15-25 Jan 2018
This was our sixth cruise with Azamara and it was every bit as good as the last five.
We stayed in Hotel Bougainvillea in Santo Domingo, outside San Jose, for 4 days before embarkation. The hotel was set in 10 acres of botanical gardens and had a swimming pool. It was great for bird watching. We took a tour from there to La Paz Waterfall ...
Thank you Host Grandma Cruising! I'm glad you enjoyed the Costa Rica cruise...it sounds amazing.
And thanks for all your effort and concern. Much appreciated by all!...
i chose this sailing because of a special promotion which made the price reasonable compared to most other azamera cruises and it had an interesting intinerary.. i had always wanted to sail on azamera due to its excellent reputation for food quality, its small size, the free liquor and free gratuities. it lived up to my expectations, the staff is very friendly, the captain down to the ...
The main reason we selected this cruise because of friends. We found the Quest to be clean, the food and service good, and the entertainment surprising good. The ship carried about 650 passengers, so pretty intimate.
People who expected a "luxury" cruise were disappointed however, nothing really special about it.
We were on a Costa Rica cruise ...very little to see and do in several the ...
This was my first time on the Azamara.
If your 50 to 75 years old (Maybe some 40 plus people??) and love being tempted with copious amounts of food and beverage then you are the target consumer. But you may be disappointed too.
I know that some people complain about the limited music tastes available, and, generally, the dubious wine quality and this may well be true, but you can't please ...
I am today off Azamara's 7 day Singapore to Bali cruise, 14-21 January, 2018. Azamara Journey is a fine ship, almost a twin to Oceania's Nautica, with good food and excellent, cheerful, service. Cabin 6042 was fine for me on my own but would have been a real squeeze for two (my wife sat this one out as she does not like hot, sticky weather!).
The nuts and bolts of the cruise all worked well, ...
We made the Singapore cruise to Bali last January of this year.
It was our 4th cruise on Azamara, and number 12 of all we did.
And the experience was not as good as we used to Azamara
All protocol, cleaning, food, etc. was fulfilled But it lacked the "extra touch" that showed that the company was really interested in passengers.
Entertainment was poor, The average age of the passengers ...
Boarding in Singapore was fine.
Cabin quite small, especially the bathroom, but overall fine. Bed very comfortable.
All staff very pleasant and helpful, though one particular waiter in Discoveries got people's orders wrong more than once.
Free self-service laundry very well-equipped and useful.
Overall decoration etc. very good.
Food in main Discoveries restaurant extremely good - ...
My husband & I & our adult son have just returned from our, carefully researched and happily anticipated cruise around Indonesia. Our son has, well controlled & monitored, Bi Polar Disorder.
Our staterooms were comfortable. The food was good quality in both the buffet & main dining room. the 'Brunch was a standout. Service there was very good. We also ate in Prime specialty restaurant & it ...
