Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise Reviews

So to clarify this is my second cruise to begin, the service was poor and distasteful. the staff seemed disinterested rather serving they seem only to speak to each other and hide in corners. I get that, but with MSC servers are always there. They even straight up ignore you. there were some a few like three staff who were utterly amazing and a credit to the industry. entertainment: evening ...

Cruise on Iona from Southampton to Canaries on a 2 week cruise after having been on the MSC Euribia the week before. I had my first cruise on the Azura in 2022. I had seen some reviews of the Iona described as Butlins at sea and my first impressions were that this was rubbish. However, by the second day, I realised they were absolutely right, it is definitely Butlins at sea and for a number of ...

From booking and all the confusion over flights being changed, seats not booked when paid for, poor after booking service where your passed from pillar to post because we booked by phone, although you are all Tui, shop or messenger don’t want to deal with you. Flight fine, transfer fine, cruise leaves a lot to be desired, ship needs a lot of refurbishment, not nearly enough toilets, always out ...

Thanks but no thanks March 2024 So let's have an honest review rather than one designed for your family to see. Staff are very friendly supervisers are lazy and officers give you lip service. Food is a disgrace apart from nonna's restaurant everything everywhere else is like warm slop. Bacon cooked in chunks in the oven so the middle is uncooked in the marketplace, flysheet around drinks ...

This was our 14th cruise crossing mulitple cruise lines (Viking, Royal, Azamara, HAL) and now Princess for the first time. Our trip was going to be the 4th cruise of the Sun Princess, but it turned out to be the second I believe. I still have high expectations for Princess as they didnt communicate any issues with the boat prior to departure. We did upgrade to a balcony room. We had another room ...

They advertise and promised a vacation that wasn't what we paid for... Loss of most important stop, Santorini, and the replacement wasn't even close in comparison! So much of the entertainment wasn't up and running, and won't be for quite a while! There is no Spellbound, no Love by Britto, no shows in the Dome, reduced replacement shows in the arena and Piazza. It not even close to what is ...

We took this cruise to see Portugal again and get to Uk. We chose an inside cabin to save some money . I booked thru princess because it was our first time on them and I wanted a good cabin. I said I wanted stateroom ubove and below. Our room was over the piazza. We had music blasting in our room until 12:15 am. We called nightly and no one did a thing. We were told there were no rooms to move ...

A complete mess. The food is tasteless, old, yesterday and cold. Breakfast includes yesterday's cold baked potatoes straight from the fridge. Omelet and scrambled eggs are cold and yesterday. Your kitchen food, tragedy and nightmare. There were not even fresh vegetables like fresh cucumbers or fresh tomatoes. There is no buffet. Food is rationed, the chefs do not understand what the customer ...

Disappointed to say the least , I have been on about 20 cruises mostly with P&O . I've never had food poisoning before but needless to say spent a lot of time in the cabin , trying to get the money back on the trips we couldn't go on was not a good experience ,apparently we should have known not to eat the dodgy burgers on board as we were told you had to cancel the trips 48 hours in advance . The ...

Disclaimers: First, I believe there is a cruise line for everyone. Second, I have cruised the Mediterranean before (June 2023). Third, I typically sail on Holland America. I simply did not enjoy this cruise experience. There were multiple things I did not like but understand they may just be annoyances to me. There were a few standouts of things that were really good. The Good: 1. The ...
