Panama Canal & Central America Senior Cruises Reviews

Now that I am waiting to disembark the ship after an 18 day sailing on the MSC Divina I will leave you with my own personal review of this ship. Take it as a grain of salt like you would anyone’s review. We all have our own personal likes, dislikes, standards and personalities. Learn, get an idea and just go and have a great time on your vacation. Ok onto my own thoughts. EMBARKATION - ...

Sailing MSC makes you realize how some other lines really get it right. And what it's like when done wrong. The itinerary decided this try, and my brother in law sailed this very ship March 2023 for a short jaunt to ensure it was a good choice. He had a great 5 day Caribbean cruise so we were excited to try MSC for the first time on a special Christmas cruise. SUMMARY: I hope your family ...

First off. This is our first cruise together and my first cruise period. I am writing this 9 days into our 11 day Christmas cruise. Cabin: We purchased a inner cabin on level 10 near the front of the ship. For what we paid, it has been pleasant. Pillows are good. Bed a bit hard. Sounds travels from nearby cabins. Bathroom is adjustable shower door for greater space in the lui. Lots ...

Yacht Club, Balcony cabin. Check in was horrific. Lines forever. Even with YC we had to wait 3 hours to board. NO drinks, snacks or extra service for at least 2 hours of the wait time. Finally when we were moved to a larger area we had water and the norm for YC. There were physical fights in waiting area as there was no direction from staff as to where the "general Pop" was to wait. So YC ...

I went on the 18 day cruise out of Miami on the Divina starting on 12/17/24. This cruise was my birthday (12/16) present to myself that went terribly wrong. After standing in line for around 6 hours, I get to my room at 9:37 pm. On the ship, dinner was only available at the buffet and there were so many people, food was coming out under cooked like the hot dogs.  At 12:00 am on 12/18 my room ...

We chose this cruise to celebrate my father’s 90th birthday huge disappointment complete nightmare cruise! The good, spacious state room, wonderful attendant very helpful. incredible dining staff San Marco deck five and deck 4. Jesse and his team! patience, Christine,Annie, KRISTY in shore excursions. delicious food throughout. The bad, old, outdated ship! Does not accommodate people with ...

Cruise was reasonably priced for a balcony cabin. Cabin was spacious with a wonderful amount of storage space. Food in main dining room was very good. The servers were good but some were more attentive and pleasant than others. Sushi restaurant was nothing special. Chairs around pool were too close together and no service. Room steward was excellent. Entertainment was poor. The dining room ...

First, the ship. She's a grand dame with elegance and charm, and the Medallion electronics are awesome. Wearing the little coin makes you recognizable to your stateroom door, which unlocks as you approach. It also tells your traveling party as well as servers where on the ship you are, and can even draw a map to find you. There are many more Medallion features which you can look up on your ...

We sailed on the Constellation from December 10th to 22nd in a Royal suite. The itinerary was the 12-night Ultimate Caribbean & The Americas, with ports of call in George Town (Grand Cayman), Cartagena (Colombia), Colon (Panama), Puerto Limon (Costa Rica) and Cozumel (Mexico). This was our first cruise since the pandemic. We were two weeks away from our South Pacific cruise on the Solstice at ...

It is always good to be a sea. Here are a few things I wish I knew on this cruise. PARKING. Its been a few years (and maybe 40 cruises ago) we sailed out of Tampa. Thankfully we were close enough to drive. Frankly it is a bit confusing because the lots near the ship are not ship parking, they are for the aquarium. Do not attempt to park near the ship. The ship parking is a 4 story ...
