Port Canaveral (Orlando) to the Caribbean Cruise Reviews

I cruised royal Caribbean a few years ago and had a great time. This time around, I've found it to be a shadow of what it was from even a few years ago. The number of activities was far fewer. The food quality, preparation, and potions lower. Large blocks where child care was unavailable including during formal dining. And between myself and others in my group there were so few positive staff ...

We sailed out of Port Canaveral and stopped at Nassau and Castaway Cay. I goofed earlier and thought we had to complete the safepassage stuff before we could check in so I ended up with a pretty late arrival time (1:45PM). I kept checking and was able to get a 1:30 arrival time about 3 days before the cruise. Due to various timings in dropping off my rental car and taking the shuttle I arrived at ...

I took my 6 and 9 year-olds on this trip while my dear wife stayed behind with our 6-week old. It was a great "dad trip" before school started. We did not even get off the ship in Nassau (as planned). I expected everyone to have the same idea in Nassau and stay on the ship, but no. The pool deck had plenty of space, the pools were nearly empty, and it was even easy to score a hot tub entirely to ...

First of all, the ship is beautiful. My son and I decided choose MSC because of the positive experience my brother had a few weeks prior. Day 1, we had no hot water, thankfully this wasn't an issue for the remainder of the cruise. There was a horrible sewage odor throughout the entire cruise on our floor (12th). In addition some public restrooms smelled (urine). A concern with cleanliness, ...

We choose this cruise because friends told us it was great. It was not at all. For starters the communication was awful, from the time we parked there was no direction and this continued throughout the cruise. The highlight of the cruise was the island on Saturday that we never got to go to. We set at the theater for almost 2 hours before they canceled the excursion, supposedly due to high ...

Short 4 night get away near our Florida home. Not only was the TV screen smaller than my laptop but worst of all the only available channels were onboard advertising for overpriced watches and jewelry! Upon contacting onboard customer service, I was informed that tv programming was experiencing a problem and was being diagnosed. When asked if the service would be repaired before the end of ...

From start to finish this was a terrible cruise. Start with the COVID test. No matter what you follow be prepared to pay for another test. Yes, pay. $90.00. Each person. Safety procedure, follow the letters above the doors. It took four people to get to our destination. Are you getting the drink package or any other package? Be prepared to pay an additional $56 per person in your cabin. Yes, even ...

Harmony of the seas, our home port ship out of Port Canaveral, is leaving later this year to be replace by the Wonder of the Seas. We bid it a good-by with a back-to-back cruise as we await the arrival of the Wonder. We took several cruises on the Harmony between 2018 and 2022 and enjoyed every one of them. We witnessed the ship and crew recovering from the Covid pandemic and their return to ...

The long anticipated Disney Wish. I still have mixed feelings about the Disney Wish having sailed on other Disney Ships over 10 times. Embarkation- Not much change here at Port Canaveral, slightly later start. Rooms-Beautiful decor-no complaints Ship Layout and Decor-beautiful and different. Some will love it, some will hate it. Buffett-About the same as the Dream in my opinion, ...

Went on Mariner of the Seas, 5 nights to Labadee and Coco Cay. Frequent cruisers but first time after just one on Royal Caribbean years ago. Was multi-generational trip including first cruise for 7 and 9 year old granddaughters. Selected this trip as two great ports and activities on ship and adjourning promenade rooms for 4 family members. Enjoyed the ports and would return to both private ...
