New Orleans Romantic Cruises Reviews

Dining - When I booked the cruise, I had selected "Anytime Dining" but was actually assigned an 8:15 pm reservation for each night of the cruise. I didn't realize my dining reservation had changed until I went to one of the dining rooms and was told I had to come back at 8:15 pm because that is what is printed on the Sail and Sign Card. AT first, I thought I had made an error in booking and blew ...

This was our first Norwegian Cruise. The smoking section is located in the middle of the ship next to the children’s pool, the buffet entrance, and the walkway to get around outside. You smell second hand smoke on the upper and lower decks around it. The casino is also smokey and located near the food areas and entrances to stores and restaurants. If you have a family, or just can’t stand second ...

Overpriced, over-crowded. Long wait for food, drinks, entertainment, elevators...most of our time felt wasted in line. Overall the whole experience felt like a marketing scheme, upcharge for everything, constantly trying to sell jewelry, art, another cruise, etc. If you enjoy coffee you'll be badly disappointed! Coffee at restaurants is average at best, the only specialty coffee is Starbucks, for ...

I’ll start by saying this was my first cruise. The staff and crew were amazing! I have zero complaints as far as the Carnival crew goes, the people who were also on this cruise are a different story…. I’ve never seen so many rude, obnoxious, and disrespectful people in one place. Groups of teenagers roaming the ship day and night, yelling and screaming, and fighting outside of your room. Early ...

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 ...

I wouldn’t recommend carnival anymore. I have been going on carnival for years and loved it up until my recent experience. They have cut cost where they shouldn’t. People go on a cruise for the food let’s be honest but their food was like greasy diner quality for the so called fancy dinner. Most of my meals would have been better at Waffle House. The chicken was dry the desserts were not good ...

This was my and my wife’s tenth cruise on NCL and was our favorite cruise line until this cruise. I started having reservations about this ship as well as the Prima after reading reviews. A lot of the complaints that people had didn’t really bother me, but I was concerned about some. The good. We had balcony on deck 11, it was good. The housekeeper was excellent, never had to wait for room to ...

I wish I could erase this cruise from memory. If you like extreme drinking and loud cruises, this is for you, us, not at all. Unfortunately it has given us doubt to ever go on a freestyle type cruise. The bars were packed from sun up to closing, sadly it was the same people everyday. You simply could not walk up to a bar to get a drink, it took forever. And no one walking around taking drink ...

Chosen for value and step up from Carnival. Mistake! Food quality was poor. Main dining and buffet were decent. Brazilian was bad. Especially for the price. Casino was horrible. Lost $80 in video poker machine and it locked up. Attendant would not show us the ticket and neither would the manager. Cabin staff, wait staff and bartenders were excellent. Ports were good. Definitely go to the zoo in ...

This was mine and my fiance's first ever cruise for the both of us. We really enjoyed the comedy shows, especially the big one the last night of sailing. The 'how to make towel animals' seminar was a fun little expo (special recognition to the gentleman who ran that event, he was really upbeat, cheerful, and funny). The dining experiences were really good and we loved our waiter(s), they were both ...
