Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

This was only my second ever cruise, and actually a sort of repeat of my first one where I spent 3 nights on Armonia in the West Med. This review will be based on my expectation when paying £630 pp for 4 nights in a balcony cabin with the premium drinks package. Good: The drinks selection with the premium package is very good. I would have liked to seen some more beers on draft, but other ...

The worst cruise experience we've had. Our cabin bathroom smells like drains so we have to put our hand towels over the two drain openings to prevent the stench from polluting our whole cabin. The buffet tables are filthy and don't get wiped after each usage or even after each meal time. The hand sanitisers at the doors to the dining areas are all empty and a lot of people on the ship are sick. ...

Did a cruise on the Azura in late January 2024 to canary islands.a total disaster.i have done a total of 43 cruises not all with P&O probably around 10 with them that ship is disgusting dirty food terrible the staff just don't care what on earth is happening to P&O Thier standards have gone off the scale gone from being my favourite cruise company to where you couldn't pay to go on another cruise ...

MSC Sinfonia is one of the oldest ships in the fleet, so don't book for the things it doesn't have, such as Yacht club, speciality dining, robot bartenders, water slides, and big production shows. Book for the destination ports and value for money. The ship was on a continuous circular Eastern Mediterranean itinerary catering predominately for the Italian market, but with many other Europeans ...

I wanted to like this cruise line. I really did. Celestyal is a small independent line that specializes in Greece and the eastern Mediterranean. I was hoping that their specialization would result in local knowledge and that the crew on a smaller ship would be adept at paying attention to the details. Unfortunately, my expectations were not met as well as I had hoped. It was the details that were ...

My husband and I, got to the ship on the 1st March 202 to be told go away for 2hrs. Umm we thought not a good start!. Before boarding no refreshmentsoffered which normally happens on MSC. Room was clean on arrival, and was cleaned daily. No attention to detail but that was fine, felt sorry for the young man as he never stopped. The ship was like a hop on hop off bus, so we had safety ...

We will not travel with P&O again, having done many cruises with them previously. The food was poor, even in the main dining room. Eating nice food is what you look forward to on a cruise but the evening meal became an issue many nights ( lack of variety in the menu, desserts we couldn't eat, no variety in the vegetables, steak requested medium and arrives well done, dry and tough. The ice cream ...

Whilst not everything on the ship is working, deck 19, the rest of the ship is fantastic. We had a mini suite. Thd cabin is well appointed, slightly disappointing that there was no coffee machine in the cabin but as we could get fresh coffee and drinks on the lido, literally just a 1 min walk from the cabin or use ocean now delivery, so not the end of the world. The restaurants are fantastic with ...

This was the third sailing of the vessel, so a bunch of stuff was not yet operational which is why she gets 4 out of 5. The itinerary was great, the staff was some of the best drawn from across the Princess fleet and it showed. The ship was brand new and gorgeous, and the glass door showers, sofas in balcony rooms, and revolutionary smart elevators were welcomed innovations that made the trip more ...

The room looked nice but opened the curtains to the balcony and turned around to see hair from previous guests everywhere and something had been spilled all down the front of the table and fridge. Nothing seemed to be sanitized ( same dirty rag to wipe down tables without a spray of disinfectant on all outside deck areas and the Eatery tables). In the Eatery breakfast and lunch served the same ...
