Mexican Riviera Cruise Reviews

My friend had previously taken several transatlantic cruises with Cunard many years ago and was excited to try their Panama Canal cruise, so I decided to go with her. Cunard positions themselves as a premium cruising line and prices their cruises accordingly, with emphasis on dressing up for dinner, unfortunately the experience doesn’t justify the pricing. It was billed as a regular cruise ...

We chose this cruise on Carnival Radiance a few weeks in advance due to cost. We’d taken two Mexican west coast cruises on Carnival before under similar circumstances on two of the old Fantasy class ships before COVID and had been pleasantly surprised both times. Sadly that didn’t carry over to their larger and newer sister. Radiance first and foremost has way too many people on board for her ...

Overall trip was fantastic but first and last time with this line. Embarkation - Fast and easy - we walked on the ship and checked in in the Insignia Lounge to get ticked off we had watched the safety video then dropped our carry on off at our cabin and went for lunch all in under an hour. DINING/FOOD/DRINKS,- - we found waves,the food hall/Terrace all good with some daily changes in food ...

This was my third Princess cruise, and this boat should not have 4.5/5 stars. It’s really worn with marked up and beat up furniture, musty hallway carpet, and rusted railings. We had a mini suite and I felt transported to season 10 of the original Love Boat—in the 80s. The crew wasn’t as friendly as previous voyages, they all seemed exhausted. Many of the services I liked on previous ships ...

You will find there are times when it tastes good, but most of the time it’s relatively bland and I am not even talking food. Let me explain and I will also throw in some tips to help you get a little more spark from this expensive 2 star boat ride. This may be too long for a lot of you…so I will put some TLDR at the bottom to get you what you need to know. For the rest of you… First and fore ...

We choose this cruise due to convenience, price, and kid amenities. We did not buy a drink package. We did not buy the wifi. Felt like the whole cruise was a sales conference. Food was just ok. Ship only has 2 pools for normal people on the whole ship. Beers almost 9 bucks a piece. I still saved a little by not buying the package. Bring your own soda if you can. The package for soda is not ...

Booked this cruise based on price and length of cruise. Wanted my family including my boys to get a taste of a short cruise. Staff members were very nice and helpful. Food was just ok. Large variety of food choices. Burgers, pizza, chicken, and BBQ just to name a few. Interesting travelers/clientele. Budget cruise. You get what you pay for. Smelled a lot of marijuana. Travelers were drunk the ...

Having been on the Carnival Radiance 6 prior times, this time really stood out as BAD! Embarkation and Disembarkation went great. That is about it however. Food was bland at best in MDR. Food quality has really gone downhill since before covid. They really need to change up the menu more often. Shaqs Big Chicken usually is really good. This time it was terrible. The chicken was two ...

Not good. I’m on ship now. There’s been no communication. There’s been soot on our patio in back ship. Curious where soot coming from. Some say maybe engine? Gotten on clothes and body. Surprised not addressed. Several times they’ve gone on our patio to clean it without notifying us. Glad we weren’t getting dressed. There’s been so many issues. The lining at pool at Havana also is coming apart got ...

This is my third Princess cruise, second with the medallion app. Last October on the Discovery we thought we were just having bad luck with their technology, but its failure this time around can’t be a coincidence. Trying to upload documents before the cruise was a joke, and it took sitting on hold for TWO HOURS to speak to a live human being to resolve it. We finally got that taken care of, and ...
