We have been fortunate enough to have been on a range of holidays with various tour operators and different cruise lines. Our most recent being Cunard Line. A far cry from Marella, on pen and paper anyway.
We wanted to try something new and after watching lots of reviews and videos online, we decided to give them a try and when a good deal popped up, we booked. We chose an itinerary that we ...
Oceania Sirena - Miami to Panama City - March 7-17 2024
This was my third cruise with Oceania. The first was the Eastern Mediterranean in 2009, the second was Northern Europe in 2012. I really enjoyed those two cruises; this one, not so much. Based on my experiences on this cruise, it's unlikely I will take a 4th cruise with Oceania.
Let's start with the good. The food was excellent. I did ...
The worst cruise ship I have been on. The ship and the room smelled horrible. I found a used condom underneath the couch of the cabin, underneath the bed, I found dirty towels and a lot of litter. The glass to go to the balcony was dirty, the carpet was full of litter, and I found a lot of dust, litter, and hairs underneath the vanity and inside of the drawers. The shower curtain was dirty, the ...
This was our fourth HAL cruise, and we were very disappointed. Holland America has been wonderful in past years, and we have extolled it's virtues, but this Eurodam cruise seemed understaffed, and the service was lackadaisical at best. We booked a Signature Suite but found that it was just a larger verandah stateroom with absolutely no "suite" amenities.
Upon initial boarding, there was no ...
My husband wanted a find a cruise in January, and this was among the few available on such a short period. Grandeur is a new ship, only four months in service, and it is all glitz and bling.
All rooms are suites, and our room was spacious, had a walk in closet, and good separation from the sitting and sleeping area. I love having a bathtub on a cruise, and the one in our bathroom ( with a ...
Six seniors, 72 and up, 4 from Phoenix, 2 from Washington felt this sailing took us to new Caribbean ports. We normally prefer Celebrity and this ship was well rated, good sail date for our needs with reasonable pricing. Two couples in inside cabins and one in a balcony.
PRE BOARDING: We flew in the day before, a Sunday and all stayed at Residence Inn on Anglers in Dania Beach. The provided ...
Thanks to my fellow cruise critics for your Equinox reviews. They are spot on. Everything about this ship is just a little better than most. We thought our experience was a good value and would recommend it..
We are senior travelers. The ship provided everything we wanted from a cruise. All of the public areas have a large and luxurious feel to them. The elevators are well planned and ...
This was my first and last cruise.
I am at loss for words… As a first time cruiser I had a lot of things to learn. Just suck that it came at such an expensive price!
The only reason they got a 2 is because the service was good and our room was made everyday just like we like it.
The food was HORRIBLE - I work in the school system and our lunch lady made gastronomic food compare to this! ...
We had a wonderful cruise to the southern Caribbean. We usually sail on Princess, but this ship had a great itinerary and a good price. This ship is going into dry dock and our balcony showed signs of wear. There was lots of rust , but maintenance came and painted it to give it a better look. The paint smell was a little overpowering. The food was delicious and escargot, shrimp cocktail, and ...
WARNING on priority access. Do not waste the money. No one at the port or on the ship knows where to direct you so you end up in the main boarding line anyway, your “early” time slot is the same as all the other passengers, the onboard spa credit is a scam as you have to spend $500 just to get the $100 and it’s only for certain services, many trips don’t have tendering heavy stops and the ...
