Mexican Riviera Cruise Reviews

Just got off the Panorama yesterday. Here are my quick thoughts: Had a Havana Aft Extended Balcony on Deck 9. Fantastic view, loved the location right below the Lido and pizza station. It also shielded us from some of the soot that lower aft balconies reported. You do hear the occasional chair being moved on the deck above, but it wasn’t too bad. We tried all of the specialty restaurants ...

I have been on many cruises with various lines and this ranks as the worst. This was a back to service cruise and had I been advised that from the beginning I probably wouldn’t have gone. The internet didn’t work half the time. The medallion worked for a few things the first week but did get better the second. Making reservations for the restaurants never worked correctly. My friend and I always ...

Where do I begin? Their package was all-inclusive as described however, included were the 15 drinks/day which didn’t rollover if you never made it to the 15 mark., unlimited intermittent WIFI per 1 device only., a specialty dining inclusion, (I’m pretty sure you had to pay for Sabatini’s Italian restaurant as well as pay a Room service delivery charge if ordered from app or in the stateroom ...

We sailed on the Regatta, round trip Los Angeles, on April 24. It was our first cruise on Oceania and we were looking forward to trying a new cruise line. Here is my long review. Our overall impression is that the Regatta has great cuisine, as promised, but it is let down by other areas. The osso buco and carbonara in Toscana and beef bourguignon were some of the best meals on a cruise ship, ...

Always loves Princess and wanted to try out this vessel. Disappointed from day one! Only cruise ever that I have ever complained about. Such a disappointment. Many issues and many unresolved. Cabin Thermostat was not working properly and cabin was extremely hot, muggy and miserable, 90% of the lounges, restaurants, etc were extremely warm/hot and uncomfortable. Not enough cleaning of tables, ...

I dreaded writing this, but now is not a good time to cruise with Princess. Staffing is a major challenge.......and it's not that people don't want to work, it's that Princess is keeping it's purse-strings tightly closed. They are clearly shorthanded, and the crew they have are trying their best, but are clearly overworked. We were told that at times, the galley crew were getting breaks or ...

I choose this cruise because it went out of San Francisco, and was easy for me to access. It started horrifically. The Majestic Princess was in port at the regular terminal. So, our California coastal cruise was out of Pier 37, a smaller building. I arrived on a chartered bus from Sonoma County, and the bus driver was told to have us get off the bus and get in line. He was able ...

We definitely got off on the wrong foot. When we arrived for departure the port was changed (Princess did send a notification, but I skimmed through it thinking it was just a copy of our bill) and we had to walk 3/4 of a mile from pier 19 to pier 39 to stand in line for 1.5 hrs in the freezing wind. We paid additionally for early boarding, but that went out the window when we had to stand in line ...

We chose this itinerary for the seadays involved in getting to and from HI. We'd also had nice experiences with Princess pre-pandemic so we opted for them again. While we were in lockdown, Princess spent two years developing an onboard network tool called Medallion. It's a device, the medallion they issue you on boarding to wear on your person, and it's a network for interfacing with ...

Waited 2 years for return of 25% of monies taken by HAL on the same cruise that was cancelled before covid. Embarkation was hectic as 3 ships were in port at San Diego, however the ship was very clean and the crew were excellent our balcony cabin was nice and stewards were very friendly. We had anytime dining later in the evenings an had nice tables at the rear window the food was very good ...
