10+ Cruises • Age 60s

We gave sailed on NCL over a dozen times and found on the Breakaway that standards have fallen and you now get less for your money. PROS The staff are hard working and friendly The specialty restaurants are very good. CONS The list of cons is extensive. No evening turndown service anymore Food in complimentary restaurants cold and unappealing Buffet food not great, no ...

I cannot tell how excited my family was for this cruise! With the exception of a few, my concierge John, our wait staff (Amazing) and the ladies who did our nails and the manager of the spa...Everyone else seemed like they were being held captive! I kept asking "how long have you been on"? It was insane! The activities director Sucked! Seriously, my daughter is 31 and she was bored out of her ...

Service nearly everywhere was very good to outstanding. The waiters we had in the MDR worked very well to get our table of 4 were very well taken care of and consistently out in about an hour and 15 minutes. The head waiter visited our table usually 2-3 times every night. This has NEVER happened before on any ship on any cruise line. We were lucky to see a head waiter 2-3 times the entire ...

Received a great price from Carnival from the VIFPP program...an oceanview suite with Cheers package and lots of added perks. In all, Carnival would have paid for us to get on! Even had transfers to and from the cruise port via SUV compliments of Carnival! Lots of presents including fresh fruit and wine, power bank, backpack and kangaroos delivered to our cabin throughout the cruise. But, we ...

Usually I do not write reviews, but after reading some of the negative reviews on this site I decided it would be best. 1st off please remember this is a mid size ship and not one of the largest/newer and HIGHER PRICED SHIPS in the Royal Fleet. My wife and I (ages 48 and 50) went on a 4 night cruise with the drink package for under $3K including our flight. We have been on over 10 cruises ...

FABULOUS staff but AVOID this ship-grubby rooms more like a 2* hotel

Review for a Europe - Eastern Mediterranean Cruise on MSC Splendida

First Time Cruiser • Age 50s

Let me start by saying staff are FABULOUS however the rooms are very shabby, like a poor quality 3* hotel at best. They are kept as clean as possible by the staff but the carpets are grubby and stained, the sofa also stained and grubby from age not a lack of attention from staff. Pool areas are really awful, like a bad version of a Butlins camp, overcrowded and horrible walking through tatty ...

This is the absolute worst cruise I have ever been on. The crew is absolutely rude, every member I have been unfortunate to run into. The ship is old and dusty, extremely gross staterooms. Extremely unorganized, and unprofessional. I highly suggest anyone to avoid this ship, or better yet the entire cruise line. Norwegian far excels in EVERY aspect over Royal Caribbean. Do NOT make the mistake of ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 40s

This was a 10 day cruise out of Quebec with stops in Sagunay, Charlottetown, Sydney, Portland, Boston, Martha's Vineyard, and ending in Baltimore. Due to hurricane Lee, we missed Sydney and Portland, then finally, on the only day that it wasn't raining, we skipped Martha's Vineyard due to "sea conditions and wind." It was a beautiful day, so now it's another two sea days. All told, in 10 days we ...

Having recently completed a seven-day transatlantic voyage aboard the Queen Mary 2, our first Cunard experience post-pandemic pause and just after a couple of recent cruises on Holland America Line and Celebrity X, and we felt it useful to share a quick review. Our oceanic résumé is not devoid of experience with Cunard; we first sailed on the QE2 back in the early 1970s in tourist class and have ...

Is NCL Slipping?

2-5 Cruises • Age 60s

When it came time to book our very first cruise, we researched everything we could...dining options, entertainment, onboard amenities, itineraries...and we decided that NCL offered what we wanted. Freestyle dining? Yes please! Wide range of entertainment including Broadway shows? Heck yeah! Interesting itineraries? Yep, lots to choose from. Sadly, much of what led us to NCL is no longer ...
