I will start with the only two positives. The ship was very clean and the people in the casino were great.
That's it! It was a full cruise. They were not able to accommodate all the people on board. The only people that would say Good Morning were the crew in suits other then that you didn't exist. The buffet food was cold and kid friendly. (We didn't have kids) for seven days it was the same ...
Took the NCL Breakaway on a Xmas cruise with wife and kids.
Ship is big and it is nice but that is all it has going for it.
We have been on RCL, Holland America, Costa, Carnival and NCL.
First lets start with the food if you eat in the main dinning ( free ) food to me was not much better then hospital food we heard lots of complaints about this. The pay restaurant's food is better so if you go ...
We went on a Christmas cruise and the ship is old and the entertainment and onboard activities are only OK. I would never go on this ship again as the food was terrible. I almost "lost it" when I saw Caribbean goat curry a selection on the buffet. One dinner entree was so cold that the waiter sent it back after he saw that I could not eat it. I threw up all night after one of the steak dinners ...
This suppososed high tech Royal Carribbean "Smart Ship" was unfortunately pretty "Dumb". Computer related problems with boarding/departing, drink package, restaurant reservations, etc., led to delay, mis-charges, long lines and a publicly demoralized, exasperated crew. Add to this mostly, at best, acceptable food, in both "free" and up-charge restauants and the elimination of waiter-friendly "Main ...
Where do I begin..Our luggage was brought to us with a huge rip (hole) in it. They lost our case of water we brought on ship. Food terrible. Service terrible. Overcrowded with pushy people. My family was awoken at 4:30AM from fighting & screaming passengers in the hallway. Security didnt help diffuse it and could not control them. This went on for over an hour. Ruined our next day because we were ...
Booked 2 cabins so my family could reunite and celebrate the New Year with other family members spread out across the country. Paid twice to triple for what this cruise normally goes for but was willing and optimistic thinking it would be a memorable, fun way to bring in the New Year...wrong! Our cabin had a huge white pole in the middle of it that completely blocked the television view and was ...
We had never been on a cruise before and this was my last cruise. Long lines everywhere - 3 hours on the ship, lines for the elevator, lines for food, lines for guest services. Don't waste your time in line for the food because it was disgusting. I am not sure if some of the food was edible. Never having been on a cruise before we didn't know things like what deck to go for the safety briefing, ...
A little background. We are "lite" cruisers. We enjoy a cruise every few years. We have greatly enjoyed cruises with royal Caribbean, and to a lesser extend, Norwegian. This was our first cruise with a child. We logically thought disney would be a good option, but in fact it was a disappointment. Wee had high expectations as this cruise was at least double the price per night of any other we had ...
I am a Diamond member and have been on over 10 cruises with Royal Caribbean. Dynamic Dining just didn't work, angry people who had to wait for over an hour to be seated plus we had trouble getting reservations at the better restaurants. It was a nightmare as waiters couldn't use their ipads correctly to get the orders in correctly. Service was slow. Gone is the waiter, assistant waiter, and ...
I booked this cruise on opening day of reservations a year and a half ago and could not wait to experience the WOW ship. I am a Diamond cruiser with RC and had such high hopes. Just got off the Christmas cruise to the Bahamas and I have never written a review before on any cruise but could not hold back my disgust and disappointment and would like to share my experience so that maybe someone else ...
