Family Cruises Reviews

I booked this Spring Break 7 day cruise for 7 people. Synopsis: Irritated and sometimes rude crew staff, Hard sell around every corner, multiple charge errors (duplicate charges/over charges), dining room food was hit or miss, there was an overall lack of activities planned and there were either charges for or a hard sell included in the ones that were planned, the cabins were not set up for the ...

I have cruised other cruise lines several times. This was my first trip on Norwegian. The good thing about the ship was that we had a nice balcony room, that was soundproof even though near the elevators and stairs. The rest was very poor. 1. Food was terrible. They did not even have the choices they listed on their website as their standard menu. They served the same core selections ...

I went on this cruise with my family, we are first time cruisers, and this experience left us discouraged and very disappointed. Entertainment was lackluster. Sea days were mostly boring for me and my husband. If you're not a drinker/partier you will find there is not much this ship has to offer really. The pool areas are silly. One small pool, in the middle of one huge crowd. The pools are also ...

Having sailed with a number of different cruise lines sailing with NCL was our worst experience by far. Itinerary: Between booking (March 2023) and sailing: the itinerary promised by NCL when booking last year looked so promising but the numerous changes before the sail date included severely reduced times at ports of call and a completely cancelled port. On querying this prior to ...

Booked through Iglu cruises who were good 3 days in Cape Town far outwayed our expectations- fantastic stay ….Then we got on the ship . Should have stayed in Cape Town. Boat is shabby . We had a restricted view cabin on deck 8 . When I say restricted- couldn’t see anything but life boat . Layout of cabin awful . You couldn’t get to one side of bed which had its head below windows . Very ...

We choose this cruise for the destinations, we did two weeks back to back Tropical Shores & Cocktail & Coconuts. The destinations didn’t disappoint and Dominica was the highlight. However the onboard experience was the worst we have ever had. If you don’t mind bad food and like to drink a lot you will probably love it. It felt like Wetherspoons at Sea but that would be doing Wetherspoons ...

After 16 cruises I was rather shocked that such a form of cruising/ship still exists. The ratio staff to passengers is poor, even worse the ratio cabins to public rooms. On sea days you could sit nowhere and you had to retreat to your cabin. The fight for tables in the main buffet restaurant was usually challenging and the quality of food was 2 or 3 stars max. There was not one food display you ...

First I would like to say that I was extremely happy with the studio and am looking forward to my next sailing on Prima 10/6/24. Unfortunately I was extremely unhappy with a number of things on the Getaway. The majority of the meals in the main dining rooms were inedible. Either the meat was too tough to cut or the food was undercooked. I have been cruising for 40 yrs on various cruise lines and ...

Our Island Princess Cruise was scheduled with an itinerary from Dubai to the Red Sea / Suez Canal to the Greek Islands to Italy. Due to world events, Princess deleted the itinerary and substituted a new segment from Cape Town to Rome through the eastern Mediterranean. This was our 45th wedding anniversary trip and we had targeted the Greek Isles as a bucket list item to check-off. Princess ...
