DISAPPOINTING SHIP AND CRUISE

Review for a Caribbean - Southern Cruise on Norwegian Sky

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

This was our fifth cruise on Norwegian. As an aside, we have made reservations on other Norwegian cruises before, but we were notified of itinerary changes that made the cruise less desirable to us, before payment was due. Therefore we cancelled those reservations. This cruise was selected by my wife and I as a repeat of a January 2020 Southern and Eastern Caribbean (just before the Covid ...

I will start by saying the staff was nice. But... Our room smelled like sewage and arm pits. The food was disgusting every night. There were no activities. This ship is old and very out dated. We had a family of five. Our king bed was two twin beds unevenly put together. Our children beds were in the wall, it took over 2 hours for someone to come and assist with pulling them out. I have cruised ...

We took my parents for their birthday on the Norwegian Sun…they live in Florida and wanted to sail out of Miami or Ft Lauderdale. I had limited vacation time, and didn’t have many other options to book, so this cruise checked the boxes. We normally sail on Azamara or Celebrity, so we kept an open mind for NCL, knowing it might be a different product. We knew it would be an older ship, but as ...

Because it got dood reviews and it was leaving from Baltimore. Unfortunately we had a very rough ride down and back and weather was not good anywhere but Half Moon Cay but that not the cruises fault. The food however was not very good, didn’t even look appealing. There was no entertainment really other than comedian who was very good and some piano bar etc. just a bunch of games and auctions ...

Breakaway needs food improvements!

First Time Cruiser • Age 20s

Food was cold and tasteless. We went to the Shanghai Noodle bar expecting fresh hot food and delicious delicate spring rolls. Food was barely warm and the springrolls were more like eggrolls. American diner food was cold and the chicken pot pie was glop in a bowl with 2 pieces of bread (had this on the Escape and it was amazing!) The pasta at Lu Cucina was dry. Nothing like we have ...

Celebrity was not what it once was.

Review for a Asia Cruise on Celebrity Millennium

First Time Cruiser • Age 70s

This was our worst experience with Celebrity in our over 20 years of cruising with them. The Millennium is a dated ship that has not been well maintained. Celebrity should no longer be using her. Service has suffered greatly in the post-COVID era. The ship felt understaffed with totally indifferent staff. There were waits and lines everywhere. The buffet cafe was always crowded and dirty. We ...

Review for a Caribbean - Western Cruise on Mariner of the Seas

6-10 Cruises • Age 40s

I very much regret our latest cruise on Mariner of the Seas. We went during a busy time (spring break season), but the boat felt especially crowded. It was very much akin to how airlines started squeezing as much people in during the last decade or two- the cruise felt overbooked and there wasn't a single space, bar, or restaurant that wasn't jam packed or didn't have a line. In addition, the ...

Review for a Caribbean - Eastern Cruise on Nieuw Amsterdam

2-5 Cruises • Age 40s

Let me first start off with the good: The crew was very nice on the ship (except the guest services). They pamper you like you are a Saint, even if you do not want it. The ship was clean and neat. They communicated very well with the guests on all activities and upcoming shows. There were plenty of elevators and the ship was not overly crowded. The rooms were good size and the internet was decent. ...

Not a fun cruise at all

2-5 Cruises • Age 70s

There were way too many people packed in for the amount of space. Elegant night was a joke. We sat pushed between a divider and another couple and it was so loud in there no one could hear each other. This was after a two hour wait. We sailed on this ship several years ago and really enjoyed it. The Captain's night was very relaxed and special, a lovely dining experience. On this cruise, ...
