I recently had the unfortunate opportunity to sail on the Navigator of the Seas with Royal Caribbean, and I must say, it was a highly disappointing experience. From the moment I stepped on board, it became evident that this cruise was far from the luxurious and enjoyable experience I had anticipated.
One of the first aspects that left a sour taste in my mouth was the bar service. The staff ...
Nightmare starting at arrival at Port of Miami and basically sitting (or standing due to lack of chairs) in a human warehouse; given numbers without explanation when we checked in. Little did we know that thousands of people would be waiting for their number to be called because they were yelling that they were running behind in getting people from the previous cruise ship. That's at least what ...
We chose this cruise line because we are loyal Princess platinum members. So, when we wanted to get away after the holiday season we searched the options on Princess. The Discovery Princess was our first choice because we could board the ship in LA. We live in Orange County, very close to the dock so, this made our voyage…and decision simple. Also, we have cruised this itinerary on Princess, ...
I just took a cruise on Royal Caribbean Navigator of the Seas to Catalina Island and Ensenada, Mexico and it was BY FAR the worst cruise I have ever been on. First and most disappointing, Catalina Island was basically closed. They said once on the island that it wasn’t season so there was basically nothing to do once you got there besides rent golf carts and ride the same route for an hour. There ...
I was on the norwegian bliss sailing january 7-12 on the mexican riviera itinerary.
This definitely put me off ever cruising norwegian ever again.
PROS: SIX AND JERSEY BOYS
Cons: pretty much everything else.
Overall: a vacation is still a vacation. It is what you make of it. We still had fun and did our own thing, but have decided that norwegian is definitely not for us.
I have ...
This has our 17th cruise (not all with Princess) so we are not new to cruise ships. This was the worst cruise of all and we will not be sailing with Princess again. Sorry Princess but your services on the cruise have ruined it for us. The first day, we went on the ship tour and went up to the Lotus Spa. I asked about using the sauna/steam room and was told by the female attendant the there would ...
the dinning room food was a disappointment, the buffet the same , poached eggs come cold, toast you cant cut the edges of the toast very tough. room service horrible, wine and internet pricing very high. The shows were okay, there was no captains night, The pricing has gone up so high, cruising is no longer affordable for seniors like it use to be. It is sad because we have sailed with them for ...
Absolutely livid- this ship not only is extremely overcrowded with every venue smaller than a ship that holds half as many passengers, but their dining and customer service is abominable. I booked this cruise for my dads 70th birthday and booked specialty dining in the crown grille months in advance for the night of his bday. The food was absolutely horrid- all four of our steaks came out cold, ...
I have been cruising with Carnival for the last 15 years and had good experiences with them up until 2024. We did the 15 day Hawaii cruise and were highly disappointed.
Food and Service on the Carnival Miracle was subpar at best and the ship had many things out of service like ice makers throughout the ships drink stations. We noticed that there was far less crew in the MDR and at the bars. ...
Navigator Notes
Although, our Royal Caribbean Cruise, for our multiple generations over New Years was not all bad, the cons very far exceeded the pros. We cruised multiple times as our children were growing up and loved it as a family. We haven’t cruised in 10 years and have now learned that things have changed a lot. Prior to booking I had read online reviews that ‘everything was an upcharge’. ...
