We enjoyed this cruise so much. This was our 23rd wedding anniversary celebration and trip. When I say that the staff on-board the Horizon not only greet you with a smile, but they also make sure you feel like family and valued guest. From the time we boarded we were asked several questions regarding our diet restrictions and food allergy. They made sure no incidents were going to happen on this ...
We just returned home from our Rivera Maya Voyage on Virgin's Scarlet Lady. This was my Partner and I's first experience sailing with Virgin, and the experience was great overall!! I think this cruise line will continue to make waves in the industry and I have a lot of appreciation for the way they stand out from other cruise lines. However, there were some aspects that did affect our experience ...
We wanted to chillax, enjoy warm ocean breezes, see beautiful places, eat healthy, delectable food, be ourselves, see quality entertainment and do so in an “adult-only” setting. Our cruise to Cozumel and Biminy on the Scarlet Lady hit the mark and genuinely exceeded our expectations.
The staff were exceptionally hospitable, the ship spaces well designed, clean and we never felt “crowded”. ...
I am a travel agent and went on this cruise to experience Virgin Voyages so I can better sell to my clients. VV gifted me this cruise and this is my honest review. I just returned home from my trip on the Scarlet Lady with Virgin Voyages a couple days ago. It is so different than any other cruise I have ever been on, which is what they are going for. First the food, VV is known to be a food ...
Here is our honest, detailed review!
We were on the Carnival Celebration from February 25 - March 3, 2024. We are a 30 year old married couple from Canada who traveled just the two of us. This is our fifth cruise together and second Carnival cruise (we have cruised Norwegian twice and MSC once).
Embarkation
Embarkation was very smooth. There was no waiting around. We were curb to ship in ...
Having cruised on the original Excel class ship (Mardi Gras) in 2022, we were looking forward to sailing on the Celebration, expecting similar entertainment quality and value.
We got a big shock concerning the entertainment offerings shortly after departing. The shows featured at the center stage (the three-deck atrium) were very lackluster in comparison. There may have been a technical issue ...
First cruise with VV. Boat is only 2 years old and in sparkling condition. Layout did not lead to getting to know others as easily as I would have hoped. As Mega Rock Stars we had access to Richard’s Rooftop which had seating and a bar. The seats were circular and were better for privacy. With Mega Rock Star status we had a personal driver from hotel to ship, early check in and easy boarding ...
I chose this cruise because if all the hype about the food. I was unfortunately disappointed in the food at the specialty restaurants and would have rather just eaten at the galley. The service was very slow and there seemed to be no rhyme or reason how the food came out of the kitchen. When at the Wake and Extra Virgin people that showed up later would get their food before people that had ...
We just got off the Carnival Horizon and wanted to share some of our experiences…. The lively ambiance was contagious and the guests and crew seemed happy to be on the ship. Our room was clean and comfortable and evidently, bigger than interior rooms on other cruise ships. The entire ship was new and clean and well maintained. The majority of the workers seemed happy to be on the cruise and ...
Loved the voyage! Many lovely sailors (what we are called), * no children*, wellness program available 24/7 with many, many programs and up to date equipment.
Youthful, vibrant, magnificent dining experiences (make reservations!) large and well equipped fitness area.. the Redemption spa area was over the top FAB!
Bathing suits without coverups around the ship and loud music were both ...
