Canary Islands Romantic Cruises Reviews

I have been with Azura before and have enjoyed the cruises very much. We are at the Mediterranean level of their loyalty having also been on some of their other ships. This cruise was a big disappointment. I was looking forward to it because they , before covid, had a very good vegetarian menu. Not this time. The food was not good at all, there were many people complaining about it . My ...

We had been attracted to the itinerary of the West Africa coast as this seemed a good opportunity to see less-visited places. The missed ports were a disappointment, not least because of the flimsy and conflicting excuses and messages offered by ship management. Arguably, had we managed to dock there, these would have been yet another disappointment because almost all of the ship excursions ...

Not what I expected, the two dress-up nights were very very underwhelming, nothing much on, and the food was just very disappointing. Breakfast one morning the sausage was definitely off yuk!! In general, the meals were rather a letdown, some tables were rather small for 4 people and all the plates, etc. Very little entertainment during the day unless you enjoy dancing which is on in the ...

We chose this cruise because of the destinations, principally destinations on the west coast of Africa that are otherwise difficult to visit. Most of the passengers appear to be very well travelled, and those to whom we spoke talked of choosing this cruise because of the destinations, including the Cape Verde Islands, Senegal, The Gambia, Côte d’Ivoire, Togo, São Tomé, and ...

This was our second Royal Caribbean Transatlantic crossing and what a contrast. Our 2018 trip was a real pleasure. This November 2022 cruise was plagued by mistakes. Almost every day there were last minute changes, conflicting and often duplicate scheduling of events on the ship. Repeatedly, crew made no seating or staging preparations for events. The Cruise Campus was a mess. Examples: Oe ...

I don’t know where to start! I shall endeavor to keep this review as short as possible. I suspect that P&O are desperately trying to recoup some of their losses caused by the Covid-19 pandemic and hence I believe they have downgraded the whole cruising experience in order to save money. Key points as below, not in any particular order: 1. There is no afternoon tea in any of the main dining ...

Firstly, let me preface this by saying we are seasoned P&O cruisers. Our party consists of a multi-generational family with ages ranging from 27 to 83. Cruising has been our go to holiday of choice for several years now. We had booked this cruise over 3 years ago but thanks to the pandemic it had been cancelled and changed 3 times before we eventually got on board. Suffice to say, we were very ...

Firstly I and tens of thousand of others are being 'MIS-SOLD'. The customer is given the opportunity and often pays extra to choose a balcony cabin or similar, only that MSC cannot be bothered to log the details and given a random cabin, yes we are in the computer age. This is a known issue with Cruise Consolidators and happened to us on MSC Seaview in December last year and the Preziosa in April ...

Have traveled with Silversea on over 20 cruises now, on most of the ships. The last time we traveled this ship was Christmas 2018. Only 4 stops, so most were sea days, however lack of any 'activites' most days and only 1 day where we were provided with an 'extra' food offering on pool meant our group were rather bored. La Terezza has stopped providing a 'restaurant' drink to start the meal and ...

We sailed on Royal Clipper in 2014 and loved it. We couldn't wait to go back, so much so, we booked two cruises back-to-back. This time was a VERY DIFFERENT experience. - Blistering paint and rust on ceiling, banged up woodwork, bad stains on carpet, chipped up paint on walls - Malfunctioning toilet (twice). We didn't have a working toilet for 16 hours. We had to use the toilet in ...
