Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

We wanted to try Virgin because it is adults only. We expected the entertainment, dining, and decor would be good. The food was bad, and hard to get. No buffet or any way to get a quick meal. They had some little plastic boxes with sandwiches in them occasionally, but even though they were terrible food, at least something, but even the sandwich boxes were usually not available. We all lost weight ...

Another brilliant experience on VVs newest ship. Utterly breathtakingly beautiful. The modern and sleek design of the ship tailors to every need. Exquisite fine dining, fantastic exercise spaces and the friendliest service from every single person we met. The port stops in Split, Dubrovnik and Montenegro were some of the most beautiful places we’ve ever seen. The entertainment and shows are some ...

We heard great things about Virgin Cruises, and it was a perfect opportunity to surprise my wife with a trip to Greece/Croatia/Montenegro for her 40th birthday. We embarked in Athens and the process was quick, easy and painless. When we first arrived, they said that it was a bit early so they had shuttles set up to take us into town to kill some time. When we arrived for our 1:45 entry time, ...

The worst cruise experience I (and several strangers on multiple ships) have ever had. Absolutely horrid cruise line which lost countless customers. There are several things that went wrong on my recent trip on Jade. Our bed was not made and we did not receive fresh towels when our room was open. Even at slow bars, we could not get service half the time. Bartenders did not know how to make ...

This was an amazing cruise and we were glad we went. But there are some things that RC could do better. Bus pick up in Venice-make sure you have luggage tags on your bags because when you give them to the bus, you will not see the bags again until they show up at your stateroom later that day. If you don’t have your luggage tags on, it will take extra time standing in more lines. To get to ...

We chose this route because it would allow us to see multiple places we really wanted to visit (Athens, Split and Dubrovnik) and due to my husband’s energy levels linked to health we decided on a cruise. I saw Virgin Voyages cruises through influencers I follow on Instagram and decided to book. I found a great deal online and started to get excited once I saw how informative their app was. It ...

We chose this cruise for the itinerary. The fact that the ship was brand new didn’t hurt either. This was our third cruise on Oceania and we first cruised with them on the Baltic Sea on the Marina. We fell in love with the ship and the cruise line. However, since the pandemic, things just aren’t quite the same. We did our air through Oceania for the purpose of if things went wrong, they would take ...

I booked this trip based on past good experience at Freedom of the seas from San Juan to southern Caribbean. I booked the same room Ocean View Panoramic Suite (No Balcony). But the services I received in the ship is far less than the Freedom of the seas. 1) no special bathroom stuff such as shampoo, condition, etc., it is the same as regular room; no slippers, same regular towels that are ...

I haven't been to the Adriatic and it was in my bucket list so I was excited to see this itinerary and grabbed it. From the moment we embarked, we were amazed by the courteousness and friendliness of the crew. Our room with that balcony was gorgeous with its modern set up. Moving on, the food was excellent. Each restaurant we tried was fantastic. The shows were one of a kind, never seen in ...

We found the the whole cruise disappointing. At embarkation we were told to sit in a tent for 4 hours, in the sweltering heat. The cruise never got any better. It was hard to get food. The entertainment was horrible at best. The walls in the hallway were stark, almost like a jail. We had to bring in a chair from the balcony to hold the door open. There didn't seem to be any ...
