Me and my family recently embarked on an MSC cruise to Bermuda, and unfortunately, my overall experience was a bit disappointing. Here's a breakdown of my journey:
Buffet Challenges:
Navigating the buffet felt like a scavenger hunt for necessities. The constant shortage of cups and silverware turned every meal into a frustrating ordeal. It was disheartening to witness guests battling for ...
23 years ago my husband helped to build Aurora in Papenburg, Germany. He talked sometimes of maybe having a short cruise on her for nostalgic reasons. We took the plunge this year when she was sailing to Amsterdam on a mini cruise on his birthday. We booked a suite certainly not cheap for 4 nights but we were excited at the prospect of experiencing her from a totally different point of view.
As ...
I'm working in F&B for 40 years and I was very impressed with the service and professional service from Yogi.My experience was very good from the first day we meet Yogi for all my reservations for the 5 days dinning in the Specialty restaurants. You should be proud of this gentleman.
Very good experience in the Japanese restaurant. They need to improve the sauna area and the service there ...
Haven't been on a cruise in over 20 years. Left Ft. Lauderdale on Monday, 11/27/23. 10 minutes from terminal to 4th deck bar (no joke it was THAT quick). Easy, easy, easy. 4 day cruise - 1 Coco Cay, 1 Nassau. I loved everything about this cruise, including our Jr. Suite, except the food. BIG disappointment. Yes you can have as much as you want, but I really felt like the portions ...
Liberty of the Seas is a delightful ship with so much to enjoy especially on a 3 or 4 night itinerary. Embarkation was a breeze 5 minutes after being dropped off we were getting our welcome aboard photo and walking down the gangway directly stepping onboard. The Windjammer was open and had an abundance of food to select from. Everything we tasted was good and the service friendly. The exterior of ...
The Sky is an old ship. We knew this but NCL claimed their upgrade in 2022 was great. Not.
Pros: Crew, all great, esp. 'Yogi' the butler and 'Huberth', concierge. Layout of the cabin (not the location, aft penthouse suite- above the show theater. Production shows were spectacular, all of them. Cagney's steakhouse was superb.
Cons: Just feels old, wall paper in spots peeling through out ...
We wanted to celebrate our 30th in style so we chose Cunard.
They did not disappoint. Great service , sparkly rooms ,lots of activities, fabulous food and free laundry.
We loved our Balcony Room and we enjoyed the televised lectures and entertainment. Staff were great to chat to not robots. Spa was great . Internet - new Starlink was well worth the basic price. FB , emails and some videos ...
Had not been cruising for quite some time. Things have changed a lot. Some for the worse, most for the better. Traveled in a solo cabin and despite my hesitation, the accommodation was comfortable and roomy. Over the seven days I enjoyed the entertainment, hospitality and activities aboard ship. The Perfect Day on the private island was also restful and pleasant. I would especially recommend ...
Whilst some aspects of the haven experience were worthwhile many aspects were not. Balcony in a poor state of repair and dirty Sofa bed which is required if you book a suite for 4 was dirty and not fit for purpose.
No alternative available .
Facilities for 2 only despite paying for 3 this included life jackets! 2 cups shower gel ect only in main bathroom.
Promise of a butler to meet ...
The entertainment was good with a variety. Not lot of options for the mid aged crowd unless you wanted to go to the sky club at 11p. Food was average, I was not used to having to book each dinner meal ahead of time so ended up dining late when there was a free table. Princess Cays was beautiful! The medallions were convenient with hands free door unlock. There were many frequent sailors on this ...
