Probably last Princess

Review for a Australia & New Zealand Cruise on Ruby Princess

6-10 Cruises • Age 50s

We chose this cruise mainly due to the itinerary, to fall in the middle of a month long trip to Australia. I do take the responsibility of not considering the amount of sea days vs port days. Four ports on a ten day cruise was too few, with three of the four being tender ports (too many tender ports). We are a couple in our late 50’s and felt drastically out of place on this mainly ...

Food was outstanding - "Crew was nice but just don't understand"

We have been on over 20 cruises on various lines. We took this because it was the next level up and we wanted to compare it to Oceania. One passenger describe it best when he said about the crew, they are very friending and smile but the just don't understand what you are asking for. Alcohol is included in the price but if you don't drink, the staff does not know what to do with you. I never ...

We thought it would be a nice getaway. The refurb as far as we could tell was just removing part of buffet which left just little selection of food and adding a sports bar. Also removed smoking to little area at pool area. And of course left smokers to wind and rain. You can smoke in the casino if you want to stand,get dirty looks and smell like smoke that emulate throughout. There is a cigar ...

Suite, 10TH floor, AFT. Let me start by saying that we have been on 11 cruises, on 5 cruise lines. We have found that not a single cruise line is consistent across their ships in quality of food nor quality service. We have noticed a lack of service across all cruise lines since the advent of pre-paid gratuities. We used to be able to order soda, iced tea, or wine at dinner on the first night ...

To start..the boarding process was easy. $15 per bottle of alcohol to bring onboard..total crock! Getting into our room was easy..getting our bags delivered to the room took forever..thought our bags had been lost it took so long and we tipped the guy at the terminal. Food that was available was a buffet..no pizza place. That would be the Biggest disappointment of the entire cruise..I've been on 2 ...

chose ths cruise for the price. did a back to back on this ship and won't ever do that again. officers and crew were excellent, ship is in bad need of repair. bubbles in decks flooring, rust, dirty bathrooms, and cracked speakers made this trip difficult. food selection was lacking, very bland dishes, wait service was very slow in the restaurants. latino music blaring all day and most of the ...

The employees were great. The food was always cold and the same except in the upgrade restaurants. At one port there were no shuttles or buses and we were not told so if you couldn’t walk dir 30 min in 90 degree weather you didn’t go anywhere because the taxi line was LONG and over an hr wait Couldn’t get by the pool because people would get up early and grab towels to save chairs until they ...

We selected this cruise because I was attending a watercolor workshop. I enjoyed the course thoroughly. However, the location the ship provided was in a dark club painted black with limited lighting, their staff assisted us to have tables under the best lighting fixtures. The ship is very large and lacks good and quiet areas around the ship to just read and relax. In fact, at the last refit a ...

We chose this cruise because of the itinerary and we love sea days. We didn't expect it to be 7 sea days in a row. After reading the other reviews, I totally agree with the comments of the reviewers. NCL really failed on this cruise for the things they had control over. The cabin and room steward was excellent. The ship was too big with too many people crowed in a small space like the ...

We have always cruised with Royal Caribbean and enjoyed all our cruises, but this time I felt I had to write this review. To begin with, the ship is way too big! You can't get from one end of the ship to the other without changing decks. We have always found our way around on ships by the first day, but this time it took forever! Central Park is a joke! We walked through it one time - nice if ...
