Chose this cruise because the port is 20 minutes from home. Been on many cruises and this was the 3rd time on the pride. It will be our last.
The ship needs to be placed in dry dock for a complete refurbish. Many areas are rundown and rusty. Windows are filthy. On other ships, I would see crew cleaning external areas while we were in port. Never saw this on the pride.
The food has gone downhill as far as free food in the dining room and buffet are concerned. The most edible free food are the guys burgers that closes at 6pm and blue iguana cantina that closes at 2. In the dining room, hot food is never hot. Dinner in the buffet is very limited and lukewarm. I wonder if this is a health code violation??? They have the same side dishes every night on the pride in the buffet.
Cabin was old and worn. The refrigerator was old and appeared dirty. We did not use it. Was at the front of the ship. Was noisy when we arrived in port because there were loud, vibrating sounds like the anchor would drop from that area.
Beautiful beach but not much we wanted to do but relax
Beautiful. Just wanted to telax
Nice and easy to embark and disembark
