We chose this cruise because of the convenience of leaving from Boston and the islands to be visited. The ship is very easy to get around on and the staff is pleasant. Some areas of the ship are in need of repair. In our stateroom bathroom the mirror seemed to have a buildup of algae around the edges and after a brief rainstorm the floor of our balcony was covered in a muddy debris. The ...
It could of been better we saw the cruise director total of 3 times whole trip pictures were expensive had too fight for seating for meals more attention needed for passengers..been on other cruises that made you feel at home and like family .Everything you buy was for profitability vs good time . Went to effy to look at jewelry and found them to be very pushy .room was very comfortable . Had to ...
To call something great, it really has to stand about among other similar experiences, and while this cruise was not bad, there were many missed opportunities to make it much better, starting with the completely lousy greeting that we had upon embarkation. (one could more accurately say, the greeting that we didn't have). Arrival clarification: Security fine, directional crew member very, very ...
Silver Spirit, Montreal to NYC. Have sailed too many cruises to list but over the past 12 months have been on Crystal and Queens Grill in Cunard. This Silver Spirit cruise was a return to Silversea having sailed on Cloud, Wind, Shadow and Whisper in the past (and had all very nice cruise on those other Silversea ships)
Ship: Looks brand new, loved the cabin and and cabin bathroom. I ...
We just returned from a ten day trip on the Silver Spirit, Montreal to New York City. Out of 25+ cruises this was hands down the worst because of the weather. It was 29 degrees F in Montreal, we got stuck in Quebec City because of a blizzard, Saguenay port was closed because of the weather, Baie-Comeau was closed because the dock was wrecked by the storm and it was rain, snow, sleet and fog in all ...
My husband and I joined his brother and girlfriend on this cruise. The port of Boston was very convenient for them. I had been on the Norwegian Pearl earlier this year - and found the Dawn a bit disappointing. While the staff and food ( for the most part) were great - the ventilation system from the Cigar Bar was terrible. We sat in the bar just outside of the Cigar Bar one night - and my hair and ...
The Canada/New England colors were breathtaking. This was perfect timing and we really loved the trees.
The ship missed two ports due to weather and we were very disappointed, especially Bar Harbor. However, we were compensated with $25...SERIOUSLY!
The Quality of evening dining room food was poor. Three nights the meat was too tough to eat and no I don’t have dentures.
Nightly ...
So, we've been on The Jewel of the Seas before, and it was fine. Signed up for this one because of easy access to Boston, and we love Bermuda. We've been there several times. Checking in was easy and the ship was nice. A little frayed around the edges here and there but no big detriment.
Our biggest complaint was not being able to get potable water easily. We need to drink a lot and brought ...
Born in Calif I've never seen the Eastern seaboard to its fullest and thought this would be a great way to see the fall colors. We were about a week too late weather wise (our problem) but really when you can't use the outdoor areas (pool or walking areas) where you to put 3500 plus passengers? TOO MANY PEOPLE! Ironically, it wasn't a problem when we had to tender (not sure why) nor a problem ...
