Our main purpose was to visit Madeira on New Year’s Eve.the fireworks are a must to see and did not disappoint.
Check in included a covid test which meant my wife pushing my wheelchair quite a distance through qualming system which was unnecessary there were less than a dozen people queuing. We then entered the main terminal where we received our test results fairly quickly and boarded the ...
I had heard that Celebrity Constellation had good food, great entertainment, and offered a grand experience. Yes! All of my high expectations were met. We traveled with another family, and we all found different adventures to enjoy. The fitness trainer was excellent. The spa was perfect. The restaurants had such variety, the food both beautiful and delicious. The entertainment was Broadway ...
Overall a great cruise. Pre testing start to finish took about 1hr. In line to go in was packed, (bumper to bumper), inside for tests, stations were extremely tight, then went to waiting area for results, (given card with time on it) to get in final line to get wrist band, then went through security area to boarding area. Our arrival time was between 10:30-11 got to pier at 11on Getaway ...
We chose this trip for the itinerary. Not counting embarkation day, it would've been seven port days and four sea days. Perfect! The first two days were sea days, so nothing happened, but as soon as we had one port day, things changed. Our first stop at St, Croix got canceled and replaced with St. Thomas. Slight disappointment since we've never been to St. Croix, but no real big deal. Later that ...
We spent the holidays on the beautiful Equinox and just had a fantastic time! We had the Sky Suite (8336) and loved it. Perfect size and loved being on the back of the boat. Our butler and cabin steward were absolutely the BEST we have ever had on a cruise. We felt like royalty with how wonderful they treated us. Our cabin was always spotless and Eliya went out of her way to ensure we had ...
This was our first Holland America cruise after going on 5 Carnivals and 1 Royal Caribbean. Immediately, I noticed a beautiful and super clean ship that smelled fresh upon boarding. Fresh flowers and smiling, warm faces greeted us.
Embarkation was almost painless and took about 15 minutes total. Super friendly staff. We arrived about an hour before our assigned time and were on the ship ...
This is a great itinerary that hits the ABC islands in an 8 night/9 day sail from Ft. Lauderdale! Princess is doing it all right during these unprecedented times to keep everyone safe - the staff, the guests, and the islands they sail to. I felt safer on board than I do going anywhere in my own hometown. I am planning to cruise at least 3-4 more times this year, and Princess will be the one that ...
I was eager to go on a Christmas cruise. I booked one on the Carnival Horizon but it had to go into drydock so I signed up for the Regal Princess. After this cruise I believe it is a bad time to sail. The ship was at 60% capacity, which may seem like a good thing, but fewer people meant compromise. The food was terrible and repetitive. An interesting thing was that we were told there would be ...
This was our fourth cruise on the Spirit. We love the staff and the ship. Butler and room attendent were very good. Upon arrival cleanliness was definitely suspect. We complained and they fixed that day and going forward no real issues. We only had service to the room in the evening. Covid spread was definitely all around us particularly in our mid ship level 6 location thus our desire to not have ...
This was my 1st cruise experience. It started off rocky because I paid for double occupancy, but when I later tried to add a friend they told me the friend would have to pay the exact same price I did and they would not have their own cabin room. While trying to resolve the situation I called Princess and after the 2 hour phone wait they said that they could not talk to me directly( that I must ...
