South Pacific Cruise Reviews

We have only cruised with Celebrity Cruises (10 cruises to date) but decided to give Virgin Voyages a try as they were offering some great deals in late 2023 and we are a bit jaded with the nickel and diming that is going on at Celebrity (prices increases while reducing services without notice or compensation in some cases). Sailed for 4 nights Sydney - Burnie - Sydney and overall we enjoyed ...

A fantastic trip - entertainment and food is out of this world. Don't come on expecting a quiet trip, but it is what you make of it. The gym, classes and walking track are great. Make sure you book into gym classes and dining the minute you are able to. Our stop over in Burnie for the day was also a great add on and the locals are divine. Dining - Pink Agave dinner was the highlight followed by ...

I am always open to new adventures thought I would try a small 4 day on this ship. we usually travel on Silversea Seabourn Hapag Lloyd and Princess. I tried 6 weeks ago to book any specialty restaurant it just was not happening so was told to do on board I am travelling with 3 others all in sea balcony deck 11. first night we managed Extra Virgin the calamari was good if ...

1. bathtub is mouldy, toilet smells like dirty public toilet. Made compliants but no improvement. 2. Everything on the ship aren’t being maintained and very dated, e.g. Pantry water tab (to wash hands) not working, not just one of them but every single one. 3. Staff need a lot more training, the worst customer service I have ever experienced on a cruise ship. E.g. in the Pantry, one of the ...

I've always wanted to visit Hawaii. This cruise made it possible to go to three of the islands in comfort. Our cabin on 5th deck was delightful. Plenty of storage, a full closet, and the best designed bathroom of all the many cruises I've taken. One possible improvement could be with the shower door. It tended to open when the ship rocked. We tried several of the eating options; eating mostly ...

to see what virgin was like bars have no atmosphere,not much service internet was good and handy,the APP worked good for us,some people strggled with their phone not loading to the ship,s APP? question did you travel with children,it's a virgin cruise (no) restaurants were hard to get into,some sour pusses on the front counter blocking people who want to eat,just get turned away the ...

The unlimited selection of food which often changed each day was amazing. Food options open till 2 am made it very convenient all cruise long. All staff were very helpful and friendly. The pool size and areas were underwhelming (not large enough). There was no map to follow along the journey particularly when the internet wouldn’t allow for such tracking. Overall an amazing experience, would ...

The crew have been handpicked for the ultimate world cruise and it shows. They are bending over backwards to bring unique experiences, cultural shows, destination briefings, etc. The company has created some frustrations through inconsistent policies towards people doing same types of sailings (ex, offering discounts to those paying in advanced but not applying this equally to clients), and on ...

Cruise was on 11/2 out to South Pacific the morning of the cruise, the itinerary changed due to the low. So from 3 ports we went to 2 ports which was Santo and Port Vila (no tenders required) I was very happy with the change as i had not been to those ports since 5 years ago. Plus $200 onboard credit was given for each cabin. My personal experience: Ship - small and quirky, which Ioved. ...

Will never travel on Carnival Luminosa again. Breach of privacy when we found evidence on our GoPro of a staff member going through our personal items taking a video of themselves. MAJOR BREACH OF PRIVACY!! The staff at the sunset bar were extremely rude and weren’t happy when having to remake a drink that made wrong initially. The boat is old in the inside. Pools are small. In the dining ...
