Not great
"My most recent experience left me disappointed in quality of both food and entertainment, and what I consider to be a poorly managed ship that is still having growing pains.I compare this with my most recent cruise on Celebrity Millennium where both the Captain and the head of food/bev came by our table 2 times in 7 days to ask how our cruise was going and enquire whether we were satisfied with our cruise(which we were)...."Read More

I am amazed by the negative reviews of the Azamara Onward cruises, especially in January 2023 which is when I took my cruise. After 7 days on the too-large, though underwhelming, Sky Princess in December cruising on the Onward was like paradise. My husband and I cruised this ship in 2011 when it was the Pacific Princess so I sort-of knew what to expect. This was my 20th cruise on six different ...

“Onward” is the latest “R” class ship to join the Azamara Fleet. The “R” class ships were originally operated by Renaissance Cruises. When Renaissance Cruises went belly up in 2002 the “R Three” as she was known was taken over by Princess Cruises along with “R Four” being renamed “Pacific Princess” and “Ocean Princess”. In 2021 Princess announced that “Pacific Princess” had been sold. Azamara ...

This was my first Azamara cruise and probably my last. I wanted a small ship experience. That's why I chose the Onward. I cruised on Princess, Celebrity, Royal Caribbean, Star Clipper and Crystal previously.
The ship was badly refurbished. I stayed in a veranda cabin. The desk in the cabin had a big crank on it. This ship was just launched in May 2022. I felt that the cabin was cheaply ...

I sailed on the January 5, 2023 12 night Caribbean voyage from Miami. This was my 4th cruise on Azamara, the most recent being in July 2022 (Journey), December 2019 (Quest) and before that a 2008 voyage on Quest when the line was in its infancy. My most recent experience left me disappointed in quality of both food and entertainment, and what I consider to be a poorly managed ship that is still ...

Last April I booked this cruise whilst on the Azamara pursuit. I got a good price in a premium suite. My cabin was comfortable the butler excellent and Wi-Fi the best experienced on any previous cruise. The food was ok. The premium restaurants were included in my cost, however for those for whom it wasn’t the additional cost is not worth it. The service was sometimes very slow and when full ...

This trip was from January 5th to16th in the Eastern Caribbean. We gave Azamara Onward a 3 out of 5 for good reasons. Azamara used to have excellent food and complimentary wines. Now, that has all changed since we last cruised on them at the beginning of 2022. Less expensive cuts of meat are now used - - beef, lamb, veal, and poultry resulting in tougher meat entrees; and now only 6 ...

This was my least favourite cruise with Azamara and my least favourite ship. I'm not quite sure what is going on with the management on this ship, but something needs to change and change quick. I don't know how they could wander around and not notice the same things I was noticing. If they did, they obviously didn't care about addressing them.
It did not seem like the usual Azamara, and ...

It was our first cruise with AZAMARA ("Onward") and this is our overall impression:
Positive:
The "Onward" is fully renovated and in a good condition.
In all areas the whole staff makes a fantastic job - professional, exceptionally prudent and friendly without exception
(Our waiter BLAISE in the "Spirit" bar made the best job ever).
Very good to excellent food.
Quality of the ...

We loved our 2019 Journey cruise so we were looking forward to a similar experience. Check in in Miami was flawless. Our balcony cabin was cramped, as we expected from earlier cruise. The big disappointment was the balcony. Very uncomfortable stark gray plastic chairs (knife edge style arms!) with a gray dining height table. We called it the interrogation cell with a view and ended up not spending ...

We always cruise over the Holidays and out of approx. 30 cruises taken so far, this was our 3rd Azamara Cruise and first on the supposedly all "new" Azamara Onward.
The Good:
Mostly very friendly staff and crew. Good Housekeeping and our Cabin Attendant (Jonel) was excellent!
Food & presentation good. The Captain and Executive Chef, F&B Managers and Supervisors very visible. ...
